Ingredients

Scale

1 pound gnocchi

4 cups fresh baby spinach

8 ounces sliced mushrooms (button or cremini)

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup heavy cream

½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

2 tablespoons olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste


Instructions

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté mushrooms for about 5 minutes until golden brown, then add garlic and cook for an additional minute.

Stir in spinach and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside.

In the same skillet, pour in heavy cream and simmer for 2 minutes before mixing in Parmesan cheese until melted.

Combine the sautéed vegetables back into the skillet with the creamy sauce, then add pre-cooked gnocchi, stirring gently to coat well.

Notes

For added protein, consider incorporating grilled chicken or chickpeas.

Feel free to swap spinach for kale or Swiss chard for a different flavor profile.
