I have been cooking different stuff these days and I have also been cooking a lot. In a couple of days I will start a new job and I don’t know how much time, nor work I will have. Tofucado is great and I love every bit of it, but I’m a bit scared of not being able to do both. Which is why I have been planning for two weeks. Yay for planning. Since I planned a lot of recipes and cooked a lot, I had to choose which one to publish today. And the chosen recipe was my 30 minute healthy gnocchi spinach casserole recipe.
🇫🇷 N’oubliez pas de descendre tout en bas pour la recette en français!
Ingredients
You don’t need much for this recipe, but you still need a couple of things:
- A handful of spinach, or a bunch of them. How do you even measure spinach? I always throw a lot in there and end up with literally 1g in total, so yeah. Just add a lot, cause either way it will vanish into…nothing.
- Onion: I used a gigantic yellow onion. If you are using smaller ones, I’d say use 2 medium ones.
- A whole other bunch of mushrooms: I know I said this is a spinach casserole but who doesn’t like mushrooms too. I added around 2 cups of mushrooms.
- Gnocchi, gnocchi and more gnocchi. I used “ready to sauté” gnocchi. But if your gnocchi are different, follow package instructions!
- Spices: Garlic powder cause garlic powder rules. Some paprika, and salt and pepper to taste, the usual.
- A bit of tomato sauce.
- A bit of cream. Just to get that extra creaminess.
How to cook this Gnocchi Spinach Casserole?
Super easy as well. As per most of my recipes. I don’t have time for complexity lately.
First, we will cook the onion and the mushrooms. We will add the spinach at the end with the gnocchi. When the onion & the mushrooms are cooked, we will set aside in a bowl.
If you are using the same gnocchi type as me, aka the ones that need to sauté in a pan, you will want to do this first and then mix in the veggies (+ the spinach!).
Once the gnocchi are golden and super appetizing, add in the spinach and the onion&mushroom mix. Mix super well, then add the cream & tomato sauce. Cook for a bit, then serve and enjoy this deliciousness.
