Do you ever crave a comforting pasta dish that doesn’t take a whole lot of time to prepare? This creamy and super easy gnocchi recipe is that dish!
Jump to RecipeThis recipe has been such a big hit in the household lately that it only made sense for me to share with you!
The first time I made this, it became apparent after the first bite that it would be added to the rotation. It’s that good!
Many iterations of this recipe were tested and this is the best version by far! The biggest difference I liked was using red wine versus white wine- however that is personal preference. Any wine will do, and make sure you pour yourself a glass while you’re cooking!
This one pot take on a classic Italian meal is so good if you are craving comfort food. There’s nothing better than this easy gnocchi recipe in a rich sauce. Serve with your favorite garlic bread and a side salad.
