Number Of Ingredients 16

½ cup margarine
¾ cup finely chopped onion
¾ cup finely chopped celery
½ cup finely grated carrot
1 ½ teaspoons minced garlic
⅓ cup all-purpose flour
4 cups chicken broth
¾ cup half-and-half

1 (16 ounce) package potato gnocchi
1 ½ cups chopped cooked chicken
¾ cup shredded fresh spinach
½ teaspoon dried rosemary
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:
