Pasta with zucchini and sausage is the perfect dish for a family lunch: nourishing and quick to prepare, it will satisfy everyone's tastes. The strong flavor of sausage pairs well with the delicate flavor of zucchini and the sweetness of the cherry tomatoes, while rosemary adds a pungent note to the dish. We chose to serve this rich condiment with farfalle, the perfect pasta shape for adding a creative and vibrant touch to any dish.
