Gnocchi with Chicken Sausage and Spinach
Gnocchi with chicken sausage and spinach is an easy 3-ingredient dinner that's ready in 10 minutes!
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 (1 lb.) package whole wheat gnocchi
- 1 (1 lb.) package cooked chicken sausage (any flavor), sliced in ½-inch thick rounds
- 1 (5-6 oz.) package spinach (or about 3 heaping cups)
- Optional: Chopped fresh tomatoes, Parmesan cheese
Instructions
- Cook the gnocchi according to package directions.
- Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium high heat. Add oil, if using (see notes below). Add sliced chicken sausage and spinach, and saute for 3-4 minutes, until sausage is warmed and spinach is slightly wilted.
- Mix with the gnocchi, once it's cooked, and serve! Top with chopped tomatoes and Parmesan cheese, if desired.
Notes
I don't use any olive oil here because the sausage and the spinach cook so quickly and have enough moisture on their own. Plus, I use a non-stick pan. If you are using another type of pan or if your pan seems dry with these ingredients, feel free to use a teaspoon or two of extra-virgin olive oil.
