Gnocchi Recipe
For a fast, easy and healthy dinner, turn to canned pumpkin and whole-wheat gnocchi (pronounced “NOH-kee”).
Little Italian dumplings made from potatoes and flour, gnocchi cook in just three minutes. Rosemary-spiked pumpkin sauce uses part-skim ricotta cheese instead of heavy cream to keep fat low.
One serving of this savory dish overflows with antioxidant-rich vitamin A from the pumpkin -- over 300 percent of your daily needs! Look for packages of gnocchi in the pasta aisle.
Makes 4 servings
Ingredients
2 16-ounce packages whole-wheat gnocchi
1 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 1/4 cups chopped onion
2 large garlic cloves, finely minced
2 teaspoons fresh, very finely minced rosemary
1 1/2 cups fat-free, low-sodium chicken broth
1 15-ounce can pure pumpkin
2 tablespoons part-skim ricotta cheese
1/4 teaspoon salt
Dash of ground black pepper
1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
Shaved parmesan cheese (optional topping)
Directions
1. Cook gnocchi according to package directions. Drain and set aside.
2. While gnocchi cook, prepare pumpkin sauce in a large 12-inch skillet.
3. Heat olive oil over medium heat, then add onions and cook until onions are barely soft and translucent (about 2 to 3 minutes).
4. Add garlic and saute for another 2 to 3 minutes, until onions are tender.
5. Add rosemary and saute for 1 minute.
6. Add chicken broth, pumpkin, ricotta, salt and pepper, stirring constantly until thoroughly combined and hot.
7. Stir in balsamic vinegar. Remove from heat and serve over cooked whole-wheat gnocchi. Top with shaved parmesan if desired.
