Tomato-Basil Gnocchi Gratin
 
 
This tomato-basil gnocchi gratin is a feel-good comfort food meal that can go from stove to table in about 20 minutes!
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients
  • 1 lb vacuum-packed gnocchi
  • salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 cups tomato sauce (I used the roasted vegetable tomato sauce from Whole Foods)
  • ¼ cup fresh basil, thinly sliced
  • 2 oz mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • ½ cup grated parmesan cheese
Instructions
  1. Set a pot of salted water to boil.
  2. Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add in the onion with a pinch of salt and saute until starting to brown, about 10 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook for 1 minute, until fragrant. Add in the tomato sauce and bring to a simmer.
  3. Add the gnocchi to the boiling water and cook until they start to float. Scoop them out with a skimmer or slotted spoon, and add them to the pan with the sauce. Cook until heated through, about 1 minute. Stir in the basil. Season to taste with salt and black pepper.
  4. Turn on the broiler. Pour the tomato-gnocchi mix into a 3-quart baking dish. Sprinkle the top with the mozzarella and parmesan cheese and broil until browned, about 3-5 minutes. Let cool for five minutes before serving.
