SHEET PAN GNOCCHI

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
• Place the gnocchi, asparagus, red onion and bell peppers on the prepared sheet pan. Sprinkle with a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix the olive oil and pesto in a small pitcher. Drizzle over the pan and toss to coat.
• Bake for 10 minutes. Remove and toss. Sprinkle over the tomatoes. Return to the oven until the gnocchi have begun to brown and crisp, an additional 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and sprinkle on the Parmesan shavings. Drizzle with the balsamic glaze and sprinkle over the basil leaves to serve.

SHEET-PAN GNOCCHI WITH SAUSAGE AND PESTO

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F. Line large rimmed sheet pan with cooking parchment paper. Make gnocchi as directed on package; drain.
• Meanwhile, in 8-inch nonstick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil over medium heat. Add bread crumbs; cook 3 to 4 minutes, stirring frequently, until golden brown; remove from skillet.
• In large bowl, add gnocchi, remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil, the salt and pepper, tossing thoroughly to coat. Add tomatoes and bell pepper; gently stir to coat. Spread mixture in sheet pan; make room on one end for sausage links, and place them slightly apart.
• Roast 15 minutes; stir gnocchi mixture, and rotate sausage links. Return to oven; roast 12 to 15 minutes longer or until gnocchi are light golden brown and meat thermometer inserted in sausage reads 165°F.
• Remove sausage to cutting board; cut at angle into 1/2-inch pieces. Add sausage back to sheet pan. Spoon pesto on top of gnocchi and sausage mixture; gently stir to incorporate. Top with bread crumb mixture before serving.

CRISPY SHEET PAN GNOCCHI WITH SAUSAGE & VEGGIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Set out two large baking sheets. Divide the gnocchi, onions, bell peppers, and tomatoes evenly between the two sheets. Add the veggie sausage to one side and the meaty sausage to the other side. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil each. Over each side, sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Toss until gnocchi, sausage, and veggies are evenly coated and the spices and oil distributed. Spread out in a single layer on the cookie sheets to help ensure even roasting and lots of golden browned bits.
• Place in oven. Bake until gnocchi and veggies are beginning to take on some color, 15-20 minutes. Remove, stir, and redistribute in an even layer, and cook until there are more golden bits, the sausage is sizzling, and the veggies are tender, 5-10 more minutes.
• Remove from oven and garnish with parsley and any other fresh herbs if desired.

CRISPY SHEET PAN GNOCCHI WITH SAUSAGE AND PEPPERS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Toss together the sausage, oregano, red pepper flakes, garlic, bell peppers, onion, 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper on a sheet pan. Pour the cherry tomatoes over top and gently shake the pan a few times to evenly distribute. Bake until the sausage is cooked through and the vegetables are soft, 18 to 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, toss the gnocchi with the Parmesan, remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
• Turn the oven to broil. Sprinkle the gnocchi over the sausage and vegetables and broil until dark golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Divide among 4 plates and sprinkle with the parsley and more Parmesan.
