Ingredients

  • 12 oz Trader Joe's Frozen Cauliflower Gnocchi
  • 4 Trader Joe's Garlic Herb Chicken Sausages sliced
  • 8 oz Baby Bella Mushrooms sliced
  • 8 oz Cherry Tomatoes halved
  • 4 cloves 20g Garlic, minced
  • 2 Tbsp 28g Trader Joe's Italian Bomba Pepper Sauce (optional)
  • 1/4 C 60g Red Wine Vinegar
  • 1 C 232g Trader Joe's Traditional Marinara
  • 1 oz Grated Parmesan Reggiano for topping

Instructions

  • Add the frozen cauliflower gnocchi to a bowl and microwave*, covered, for 5 minutes. Set aside.
  • Add the sliced mushrooms and chicken sausages to a large nonstick* skillet over medium-high heat. Cook for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until both start to brown and crisp around the edges.
  • Add the garlic and optional pepper sauce. Cook for 30-60 seconds, stirring to fully incorporate.
  • Add the red wine vinegar, stir everything together, and cook until no liquid remains, about 30-60 seconds. Add the marinara and stir to fully incorporate.
  • Add the halved tomatoes and cook for 2-3 minutes until they begin to soften before adding the microwaved gnocchi. Turn off the heat and stir everything together until the gnocchi is evenly coated in the sauce.
  • Grate fresh parmesan reggiano, pecorino, or your choice of cheese on top as you serve. Enjoy!

Notes

*You can use the instructions on the packaging to warm the gnocchi without a microwave.
**If you use stainless steel or cast iron, you may want to use a bit of olive oil in step 2.
