Gnocchi with Gorgonzola and spinach

You can use frozen spinach for this recipe if you prefer. It is super convenient and perfectly fine, so we will basically never advise against it.

Gnocchi with Gorgonzola and spinach

This recipe is pretty easy and fast to make but it takes a bit of focus. Gnocchi cook in just a couple of minutes and should preferably not be left resting, so you’ll need to time it with the preparation of the sauce. So, prep all your ingredients and have a pot with water ready on the stove before you start cooking any ingredients. This way you will avoid some last moment cutting, washing, or having to rush to the fridge 🙂

Gnocchi can be a bit deceitful! They are very hearty and will make you satiated sooner than you expect, so it’s better to serve small portions. Also, a fresh salad on the side works wonders to balance the thickness and richness of the gnocchi with Gorgonzola and spinach.
