Description
A comforting and creamy dish featuring gnocchi, fresh spinach, and artichokes, all enveloped in a luscious herb-infused sauce.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package gnocchi (about 16 oz)
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup pesto sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- 2 cups fresh spinach, roughly chopped
- 1 can artichoke hearts, drained and chopped (about 14 oz)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Grated Parmesan cheese for serving
Instructions
- In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the gnocchi according to package instructions until they float to the surface. Drain and set aside.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped spinach and artichokes. Sauté for about 2-3 minutes until the spinach wilts and softens.
- Stir in the heavy cream and pesto sauce, bringing the mixture to a gentle simmer. This will take about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the drained gnocchi to the skillet, stirring gently to coat the gnocchi in the creamy sauce. Ensure everything is well mixed and heated through, about 2 minutes.
- Taste and season with salt and pepper as necessary.
- Dish the gnocchi onto plates and sprinkle with freshly grated Parmesan for an extra touch of flavor. Enjoy hot!
Notes
For a vegan version, substitute heavy cream with coconut cream and use dairy-free pesto.
