One thing that really grinds my gears is when you find a recipe online whether it be Pinterest or Google, and you open the link and it takes a bazillion years to find the actual recipe. Sifting through the writer’s complete autobiography. I don’t want to do that to you, I value your time and attention way too much.
(ps. I did not create this recipe, just want to share the wealth! Original link below*)
So here it is….. a versatile, scrumptious and most importantly comforting recipe that I recently discovered. I removed the fennel seeds and you can change up the meat, ground turkey or pork is best.
Enjoy! ❤
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 10 ounces ground pork sausage
- 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
- 1/2 yellow onion , chopped
- 4 garlic cloves , pressed or minced
- 2 cups chicken broth ( I used organic low sodium)
- 2 cups water
- 1 15 ounce can diced tomatoes with their juice (No salt added)
- 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning ( I used ClubHouse Italiano blend)
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 16 ounce package gnocchi
- 2 cups fresh spinach
- Parmesan cheese grated
Instructions
- In a large pot, heat the oil over medium high. Add the sausage and red pepper flakes and brown, breaking the sausage apart. Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring often, for about 5 minutes or until softened.
- Add the chicken stock, water, tomatoes, Italian seasoning, kosher salt and pepper. Bring to a boil then simmer for 10 minutes. Add the gnocchi and cook until they float to the top, about 5 minutes. Turn off the heat, stir in the spinach and taste for seasoning. Serve hot with a sprinkling of Parmesan cheese.
