In this episode, I chat about this easy gnocchi dinner recipe, how to make it, what ingredients to use and how to keep it allergy free. It is made in one pan, in under 30 minutes and creates minimal clean up. This recipe is featured on my Weeknight Night Plan this week as Monday’s Recipe!
One Pan Gnocchi Skillet (gluten free)
This gnocchi with tomato sauce recipe is packed with pillowy cauliflower gnocchi tossed in a rich tomato sauce, vibrant spinach, and creamy ricotta cheese. Fresh herbs add the finishing touch, creating an quick weeknight dinner that comes together in under 30 minutes. It is easy to make gluten free and dairy free.
INGREDIENTS
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 12-ounce package cauliflower gnocchi gluten free
1 15-ounce can crushed tomatoes or tomato sauce
1/2 cup ricotta cheese or vegan sub
4 cups baby spinach roughly chopped
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese or vegan sub
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Optional: Sometimes I add some ground turkey or chicken to switch it up!
INSTRUCTIONS
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the cauliflower gnocchi and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in the crushed tomatoes, bringing to a simmer. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
Add the spinach to the pan and cook until wilted, about 1-2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Remove the pan from heat and stir in the ricotta cheese and Parmesan cheese. Gently fold in the cooked gnocchi, ensuring they are coated in the sauce.
Garnish with fresh basil and parsley before serving.
On this week’s meal plan, we have a Guest Recipe for Thai Chicken Meatballs from Erin Parekh!
Fully: Gluten free, Dairy free, Nut free
These chicken meatballs are always stocked in our freezer. They’re great to round out weeknight meals when I don’t have anything left in me. I pair them with steamed broccoli and brown rice to keep it super basic or I’ll add them on top of an edamame noodle stir-fry. Feel free to add some grated carrot into them too for an extra dose of veggies. Make sure to check out Erin’s The Art Of Nourishment Here:
