I absolutely love gnocchi. When we go out to eat and gnocchi is on the menu, I’ll get it every time!
A while back, I spotted the bags of Green Giant Cauliflower Gnocchi and picked up a bag to try out. I’ll be honest, the bag sat in my freezer for quite a while. I wasn’t sure what I wanted to go with it. I overlooked it for several weeks and then stumbled on it while I was looking for something else. I figured it was time for me to try it out.
Holy moly, I am so glad that I did.
With that first bag, I used it to recreate a recipe that I get at one of my favorite restaurants…a gnocchi dish with a cream sauce, bacon and peas. It was AHmazing!! Since then, I have included the cauliflower gnocchi in my menu just about once per week.
Now the trick to these little morsels of goodness is to cook them so that they are creamy on the inside and a bit crisp on the outside. Add to boiling water for just a couple of minutes then pan fry them to get that perfect texture…or I have found that the air fryer works like a champ (no boiling required)!
