Gnocci Night


A few weeks ago, I was inspired by Jessica's "Creamy Mushroom Gnocci".  We loved it, so you gotta try it!

Her recipe...Creamy Mushroom Gnocchi  serves 2
Printable Recipe
1 pound whole wheat gnocchi
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
2 cups mushrooms, chopped
1/3 cup white wine
1/2 cup heavy (or light) cream
1/4 cup freshly shaved parmesan cheese + more for topping
fresh parsley for garnish
salt and pepper
Heat a skillet over medium heat and add olive oil. Add onions with a sprinkle of salt and pepper and saute until soft, about 5-6 minutes. While onions are cooking, prepare pasta and boil according to directions. Once onions are translucent, add garlic then add mushrooms. Cook until mushrooms are soft – about 5 more minutes.
Add wine and cook for 2-3 minutes. Stir in cream. Turn off heat and stir in parmesan. Add cooked gnocchi to cream sauce. Serve with chopped parsley and more parmesan.
**My modifications:
Saute and add 1/2 lb ground italian sausage after adding onions. 
Substitute beef or chicken stock for wine.
