Description

A delightful one-pan dish featuring creamy gnocchi enveloped in a rich sauce with fresh spinach and crumbled feta cheese.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound gnocchi
  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • 1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Parmesan cheese for serving (optional)

Instructions

  1. Cook the gnocchi: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add your gnocchi and cook according to package instructions until they float to the surface, about 3 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  2. Sauté the garlic: In a large skillet over medium heat, pour in the olive oil. Once hot, add the minced garlic and sauté for about a minute or until fragrant.
  3. Cook the spinach: Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook for another 2-3 minutes until it wilts.
  4. Create the creamy sauce: Pour the heavy cream into the skillet, bring it to a gentle simmer, and stir in the crumbled feta cheese.
  5. Combine everything: Add the drained gnocchi to the skillet and gently toss until well combined. Season with salt and pepper.
  6. Serve and enjoy: Spoon your creamy gnocchi into bowls and top with freshly grated Parmesan if desired.

Notes

For a twist, add grilled chicken or seasonal vegetables. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
