Quick and Easy Gnocchi
A quick and easy dish of gnocchi cooked in a tomato sauce perfect for cold nights in. With only 2 ingredients, this comfort food is yummy and healthy! 🙂
Serving: 2
Ingredients
- 1 500 g packet of gnocchi (not frozen), or alternately make your own (its easy, its just a dough made from mash veggies, typically potato, and flour)
- 1 large jar or bottle (600-700 g) of tomato pasta sauce in a flavor of your choice. I used a home made one that I had bottled previously.
Instructions
- Add your gnocchi to the bowl of the slow cooker.
- I used a 1.5 lt mini slow cooker
- Add the tomato pasta sauce to the gnocchi.
- stir the ingredients together.
- If your pasta sauce is quite thick, you may like to add a dash of water to thin it out as the gnocchi will absorb some of this.
- Cook on high for approximately 1.5 hours, stirring occasionally.
- This should serve 2 as a main with topping of fresh herbs or other topping of choice, or for 4 serves as a side to a fresh green salad or as you desire.

Quick and easy to prepare, gnocchi was cooked to perfection….. however I didn’t like the taste of the sauce I chose so will be making it again for sure just got to find another sauce.
I used a homemade tomato sauce that I had in the freezer and also topped it with cheese. It was delicious.
This sounds simple with almost no prep. I’m planning on using an Alfredo sauce and adding thawed, frozen spinach. I’m not sure if the spinach would go in from the start, but I think I’ll try it that way. I may also add some veggie chick’n strips for a vegetarian one pot meal.
