Gnocchi – [nyawk-kee] little dumplings made from potatoes
In other words, little tender bites of heaven.
Get your taste buds ready!! The most difficult part of
making this soup is sauteing the chicken. No joke.
What you need:
One 15 oz. jar of Newman’s Own roasted garlic Alfredo sauce
(you can use another brand, but I highly recommend this one!!)
2 cups water
2 cups cooked chicken, cubed or shredded (we sauteed in
olive oil and garlic salt)
1-2 tsp. Italian seasoning (I used two)
¼ tsp. each salt and pepper
One 16 oz. package of potato gnocchi (found in the pasta
aisle)
3 cups coarsely chopped fresh spinach
Fresh grated Parmesan cheese
Classic pesto sauce
What you do:
1. In a large saucepan, bring sauce, water, chicken, and all
seasonings to a gentle boil.
2. Add gnocchi and spinach.
3. Cook 3-8 minutes until gnocchi float and are tender.
4. Top each serving with fresh Parmesan cheese and a tablespoon
of pesto.
Mix, and enjoy!
This is especially delicious with Garlic Breadsticks.
