Ingredients

  • 16 oz potato gnocchi
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter or vegan butter
  • 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup vegetable broth
  • 3/4 cup heavy cream or plant-based cream
  • 1/4 cup parmesan cheese or vegan parmesan, grated
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme or parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the gnocchi according to package instructions.
  2. Once the gnocchi float to the surface, drain them and set aside.
  3. Heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat.
  4. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook until they release their moisture and begin to brown.
  5. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant.
  6. Pour in the vegetable broth and let it simmer for a few minutes.
  7. Add the cream and stir until the sauce becomes smooth and slightly thickened.
  8. Stir in the parmesan cheese and season with salt and black pepper.
  9. Add the cooked gnocchi to the skillet and toss gently to coat with the sauce.
  10. Garnish with fresh thyme or parsley and serve warm.

Notes

  • Use a mix of mushrooms such as cremini, shiitake, or portobello for deeper flavor.
  • Add spinach or kale for extra greens.
  • Caramelized onions can add a sweeter, richer flavor.
  • Make it fully vegan by using plant-based cream and vegan parmesan.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheat with a splash of broth or cream.
