Aaaaaaaah, now yer talkin' - LOL!! Love love love gnocchi - posted a great recipe for a butternut squash gnocchi with my cilantro pesto myself but WOW, now this is wonderful.
Team it up with your Sexy Inspired Salad, Miz Alicia, and NO MAN would dare resist - LOL!
Oh, yeah!!!! Gotta love me some gnocchi once in a while. (gnocchi and I have a naughty relationship...ssshhhhhhh...) Thanks for the recipe girls! xoxoxo Donna
Here's the biggest problem I have with this recipe. It's gnocchi from a box. It's so easy to make that even my 6 year old shapes all the individusl gnocchi's. It's quite theripudic to kneed the dough and roll it out. Once you make perfect little pillows of happiness you'll never go back to the store bought brand.
The sauce on the other hand is a personal favorite of mine. I always order the Romanoff ( tomato vodka sauce) at my favorite resartraunt in San Francisco.
Those who are soy sensitive could thicken the sauce with Tal Ronnen's cashew cream. I made his tomato bisque soup for dinner the other night and all my little omni's said mmmmmmm!
yummmmmmy. i might be able to get my kids to eat this too! i'll just leave some gnocchi on the side in case they refuse the sauce...you never know with them.
Please keep in mind that gnocchi is traditionally made from potatoes, flour and egg. I dont think Delallo makes a vegan pasta. I used to make gnocchi from scratch but have not made it because i dont know what to substitute the egg with.
If you want to REALLy make a great sauce that is vegan and organic, use the EB vegan spread and some fresh organic sage. All you do is melt the EB and then add a few sage leaves for about 30 seconds. It is long enough to extract the essential oils in the sage and incorporate them producing a really intense flavor that is out of this world!
By the way, sage is very easy to grow and is also a perennial!
They really are yummy, Guru, and you can do it with squash, too! My recipe incorporates some olive oil (about 2-3 tablespoons) to bind things - still totally vegan and they held together great - you just have to feel your way to getting the dough just moist enough. :)
