Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 2 servings

  • 2 cups potato gnocchi

  • 1 tablespoon butter

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 pinch italian seasoning

  • 3/4 cup prepared spaghetti sauce

  • 1/4 cup freshly shredded Parmesan cheese, or to taste

  • 6 fresh basil leaves, cut into very thin strips, or to taste

Directions

  1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil over medium high heat. Drop in gnocchi, and cook until gnocchi float to the top, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain and set aside.

  2. Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat, and sauté garlic until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in Italian seasoning and gnocchi. Pour in spaghetti sauce and cook until sauce is warmed through, about 5 minutes.

  3. Add gnocchi to two bowls. Garnish with freshly shredded Parmesan and basil strips.

    Cook’s Note

    I used freshly made gnocchi made with leftover mashed potatoes, flour, and egg.
