Vegetable Gnocchi

Vegetable Gnocchi

Vegetable Gnocchi is a simple vegetarian dish. It can be made all year long but will be the best in the summer with all the local vegetables.

This is a simple dish that comes together fast and tastes so fresh. Gnocchi only need to cook for 2-3 minutes. While you are heating the  water to cook them, you can be cooking the vegetables and have everything done in under 10 minutes. There is a bit of prep work chopping the vegetables but the time is well worth it.

Gnocchi are an Italian pasta in a dumpling shape. They are made with flour, eggs and other variations that include semolina or potato. You can purchase them packaged in the pasta area of your grocery store.

Vegetable Gnocchi is a hearty vegetarian meal but can also be served as a side dish. Make sure that you reserve ½ cup of the gnocchi cooking water. You will need it for the sauce.
