​

Ingredients:​

• 1 lb Italian sausage (mild or spicy), casings removed
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 onion, chopped
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 can (14.5 oz) diced tomatoes, drained
• 1 teaspoon dried basil
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1 package (16 oz) gnocchi
• 4 cups fresh spinach, roughly chopped
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions:​

1. Cook the Sausage:
   • In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook until browned, breaking it up into crumbles as it cooks. Remove the sausage from the skillet and set aside.
2. Prepare the Sauce:
   • In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute.
   • Pour in the chicken broth, heavy cream, and diced tomatoes. Stir in the dried basil, dried oregano, red pepper flakes (if using), salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
3. Cook the Gnocchi:
   • Add the gnocchi to the skillet and cook according to package instructions, usually about 3-5 minutes, until they float to the top and are cooked through.
4. Combine and Finish:
   • Stir in the cooked sausage and fresh spinach, cooking until the spinach is wilted.
   • Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan over the top. Cover the skillet and cook until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
5. Serve:
   • Serve the cheesy gnocchi hot, garnished with additional Parmesan if desired.
