Zucchini Pampered Gnocchi

Serves: 4


For this recipe I used 6 cups of the frozen gnocchi I made from scratch. Try the gnocchi recipe as it really is a lot easier than you think. When you make a big batch of gnocchi they are easy to pull out of the freezer and make them in any way. Zucchini adds another depth to this recipe.
