Potato Gnocchi in Pesto Cream Sauce image

This is a delicious, warm and comforting food! Very filling...quick and easy. If you are wanting to try something new, please give this a try! Of course you can make your own gnocchi and pesto, but in a time pinch... the pre-made stuff works just fine. Pesto from the refridgerated section of the market works much better than a jarred pesto sauce. Fresher is also better. I like to serve this with baked acorn squash. This dish actually reheats pretty well the next day, too!

Time 11m

Yield 3 , 3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (16 ounce) package gnocchi
1 (8 ounce) package fresh basil pesto (in the refridgerated section of the grocery)
1 cup cream (you can also use half and half or milk)
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

  • Fill a saucepan with water and bring to a boil. Add lots of salt to the boiling water to help flavor the gnocchi. While the water is heating, get a sauce pan and whisk together the pesto, cream, salt and pepper over medium heat. Bring the sauce to a low boil and be sure to stir frequently. Turn down the heat to a low simmer. Once your water pot is at a full boil, gently add in the gnocchi to the boiling water and cook for 3-4 minutes. The gnocchi will float to the top when they are done. Drain. Add the gnocchi to the pesto cream sauce. Stir to combine. Top with parmesan cheese. Enjoy!

This recipe was a bit too complicated for my liking. There were too many steps and ingredients involved. I would recommend a simpler recipe for beginner cooks.

Not a fan of this recipe. The gnocchi were too dense and the sauce was bland. I would not recommend this recipe.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. The sauce was lacking in flavor and the gnocchi were a bit dry. I would recommend adding more herbs and spices to the sauce and cooking the gnocchi in a little bit of butter to give them more flavor.
