Gluten Free Gnocchi with Chicken Sausage

My new Gluten Free Gnocchi with Chicken Sausage recipe. What are my main goals most nights when I prepare dinner? Healthy and Easy. Add Fast in there too on many days. Between all the activities going on this time of year our calendar is booked and meals are harder to fit in. I am very thankful to find Cappello’s Gluten Free Pasta!

Pasta that is ready to go from the freezer – just cook in hot water in the matter of minutes.

Fettuccine: Silky, buttery, and deliciously rich, our gluten free, grain free fettuccine is made primarily from almond flour and egg for a taste that’s unrivaled among traditional pasta.

Gnocchi: Our gourmet gluten free gnocchi is fresh, savory, and easy to prepare. Drawing on Argentinian tradition, this dish is made with light organic potato flakes, almond flour, and egg.

Lasagna: Cappello’s gluten free, grain free gourmet lasagna sheets are nothing short of fabulous. Made with almond flour and egg, our lasagna offers a deeply rich flavor experience—with no precooking required.

Today I’m sharing with you a gnocchi recipe with you. I have never had gnocchi – a taste between a pasta and a potato I would say – and I was excited to give it a try! I wanted to use ingredients I mostly always have on hand, plus make it something my kids would eat.

Chicken Sausage & Gluten Free Gnocchi 

Cut 1 cup each of Onions and Peppers in slivers. Any color will work.

Chop up approx 6oz of Chicken Sausage. I used Sweet Italian from Trader Joes.

I cooked these items in a pan with a dash of olive oil and garlic.

At the same time add Cappello’s Gnoochi to boiling water and cook according to directions.

After 3-5 minutes drain and add to sausage, peppers and onion.

Mix in 1/2 c of freshly shaved Parmesan, Romano, or Asiago Cheese. I used a mix of all 3 from Trader Joes.

Mix in 2 TBLs of chopped fresh parsley & sprinkle in pepper to taste.

 Voila!

I’m not done yet though. We can’t forget dessert!
