Easy to do weeknight meal that’s outside the norm. Everyone should love this.
INGREDIENTS
- 16 oz potato gnocchi
- 1 pint grape tomatoes
- 1 red bell pepperchopped
- 1 orange bell pepperchopped
- 0.5 red onionchopped
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepperfreshly cracked
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano
- ½ teaspoon dried basil
- 1 pinch crushed red pepper
- ¼ cup parmesan cheesefreshly shaved
- Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F.
- Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray with nonstick spray.Spread the gnocchi, tomatoes, peppers and onions on the baking sheet. Drizzle with the olive oil. Sprinkle with the garlic powder, salt, pepper, oregano, basil and crushed red pepper and toss well to combine everything. Make sure everything, especially the gnocchi, is seasoned well!
- Roast for 20 to 25 minutes, tossing once during cook time. You want the tomatoes to be bursting and the peppers to be soft and on the verge of being caramelized. Serve immediately. Sprinkle with the parmesan cheese and a sprinkling of fresh herbs!
NOTES: You could add sausage to this easily. I added a nice mild Italian sausage. Also, it might be a bit better to cook the gnocchi based on the package directions before you do this (though this works fine as well).
