Ingredients
Gnocchi Ingredients:1 can organic pumpkin2 organic, free-range eggs2 cups organic whole grain flour1 tablespoon allspiceSalt to tasteSautéed Spinach Ingredients:10-ounce bag of organic frozen spinach, thawed & drainedOrganic olive oil or butter, enough to sautee5 or 6 cloves of organic garlic, chopped or minced1 organic lemon
Gnocchi Method:
Mix all the ingredients together. If you have a food processor or bread machine, use it. Otherwise, mix until the flour is incorporated. The dough should be very soft and sticky. Add more flour if necessary.
With wet hands, make little balls out of the dough, and drop them into a stockpot full of salted, boiling water. I like to make 4 or 5 balls, drop them in the water, make 4 or 5 more, etc. Gnocchi floats when it’s cooked, so gather them with a slitted spoon every few minutes.
MEANWHILE…
Sautéed Spinach Method:
Heat the olive oil or butter in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Sautee the garlic for 15 – 20 seconds.
Add the spinach to the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, until heated through. You may need to adjust the heat to keep the garlic from overcooking. When heated through, reduce heat to low, add the juice of 1 lemon, and focus on your gnocchi making.
To serve, top the gnocchi with the sautéed spinach, and a little parmesan if you’re feeling crazy. Enjoy!
