Gnocchi Soup

I saw a package of gnocchi in the store today and it looked delicious....I bought it not really knowing what I was going to do with it.;

I have never made anything with gnocchi before but thought I had it at Olive Garden and thought it was good...I know~ my friend who is Italian has pointed out to me that Olive Garden really isn't Italian...I replied, yes I know ~I really need to get out more since that is all I had to compare it to! I figured it can't be that hard it is soup....so after searching the web for some recipes and reading a few I just kind of pieced a recipe together of my own. The one thing I did not have that would have went great with it was chicken. I cooked this in a slow cooker.

Spray your crockpot with Pam...

Ingredients:
1 box (32 Ounces) of Chicken Broth
1 can of cream of mushroom soup
4-5 Bay Leaves
1 Tablespoon of dry italian seasoning
1/2 Tablespon of minced Garlic
dashes of Salt/Pepper
1 cup of frozen peas
1 cup of frozen corn
1 small onion cut up
1 cup of carrots diced
(If I had celery and/or shredded up some chicken that would have been great to add to it)

Cook all this in crockpot for about 4-5 hours (carrots are tender) and about an hour before serving put in the package of Gnocchi.
Serve with some grated Parmesan cheese.

Was Easy and Yummy!
