Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1 lb pre-made gnocchi
- 14 oz kielbasa, sliced into thick rounds
- 1 pint cherry tomatoes
- 2 bell peppers (any color), diced
- 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2 cups fresh baby spinach
- 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, finely grated
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1/4 cup fresh basil, torn
- Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Roast Ingredients: Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). On a large baking sheet, toss together gnocchi, kielbasa, cherry tomatoes, bell peppers, red onion, and olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Roast for 18-22 minutes, tossing halfway through, until gnocchi and vegetables are tender and slightly browned.
- Make Creamy Sauce: While the sheet pan ingredients are roasting, heat heavy cream in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Reduce the cream by half, then whisk in Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, and Dijon mustard until a thick sauce forms. Stir in spinach and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until wilted. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Assemble and Serve: Remove the sheet pan from the oven. Pour the creamy spinach sauce over the roasted ingredients and toss gently to combine. Garnish with fresh basil and serve immediately.
