Looking for that perfect Italian home-date-night dish? Well friends, you are in luck! This is a superrrr easy dish to please vegetarians/ vegans/ plant-based eaters (like me) and meat eaters (like my fiance) alike! AND as an added bonus, you get to pack in tons of veggies (S/O to the cauliflower and kale gnocchi) instead of high-carb, high-calorie potato or dough gnocchi, so you can finish this meal feeling satisfied and energized. Say goodbye to the post-meal nap and helloooo to living your best life!
Serves 2 – 3
Ingredients
- ½ 10 oz bag of cauliflower gnocchi
- ½ 10 oz bag of kale gnocchi
- 1 packed c spinach, chopped
- 1 container of multi-colored cherry tomatoes, sliced in half
- ¾ c vegetable broth
- ¼ c tahini
- ⅓ white or yellow onion, diced
- 1 tbs minced garlic
- 1 tbs olive oil
- ½ tsp each of the following: sea salt, pepper, basil, oregano, rosemary
Directions
- Saute minced garlic and onion in olive oil in a large skillet.
- Add cauliflower and kale gnocchi, vegetable broth, tahini, and all spices. Stir well then let cook in the skillet untouched. Cook for about five minutes or until gnocchi is soft and crisp on the pan side and most of the liquid is soaked up.
- Add the tomatoes and spinach and cook for another 2 – 3 minutes.
- Top with parmesan or nutritional yeast.
* Pro tip: If you are enjoying this dish with a meat eater, they have the option to add grilled chicken.
