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!
Now I'm hungry, for sure going to have to try this out..!
