Cheesy Baked Gnocchi Food

CHEESY BAKED POTATO GNOCCHI RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375F.
• Prepare gnocchi according to package directions.
• Meanwhile, melt butter in a medium skillet. Add garlic cloves and saute over medium heat for 1-2 minutes (do not brown garlic, turn heat down if necessary). Whisk in flour until thick, cook for another 1-2 minutes, whisking constantly. Slowly add evaporated milk, then half & half, whisking constantly, until no lumps remain and mixture is thickened and bubbling. Stir in 2 cups shredded cheese until incorporated.
• Place cooked gnocchi in a baking dish. Add cheese mixture and combine thoroughly. Sprinkle remaining cup of shredded cheese over the top. Bake for 30 minutes or until cheese is bubbly and lightly browned.

CHEESY SKILLET GNOCCHI

Steps:

• Boil one 17.5-ounce package potato gnocchi as the label directs. Reserve 1/4 cup water; drain. Simmer 1 cup heavy cream, 1 minced garlic clove, 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt, a few grinds of pepper and a pinch of nutmeg in an ovenproof skillet, 5 to 8 minutes. Stir in the gnocchi and thin with the cooking water. Top with 1/2 cup shredded gruyère. Broil until golden, 3 to 4 minutes. Top with chopped chives.

CHEESY BAKED GNOCCHI CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Cook gnocchi according to package instructions, just a little short of full cook time. Drain and set aside. Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit at this point too.
• Heat olive oil in a 12-inch heavy oven-safe sauté/deep pan over medium heat on the stovetop.
• Add onion and cook, stirring often, until softened, about 3 to 5 minutes.
• Add butter and, once melted, add mushrooms and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Add garlic, stir, and cook for about 1 minute.
• Add a pinch each of salt and black pepper.
• Stir in artichoke hearts, cooked gnocchi, crushed red pepper flakes, pasta sauce, basil and 1/2 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese (about 2 ounces).
• Turn off heat and sprinkle over remaining 1 cup of mozzarella cheese and Parmesan cheese.
• Bake (uncovered) in preheated oven for 15 minutes or until it's bubbly around the edges and the cheese has melted. Garnish (if desired) with basil and/or parsley. Serve and enjoy!
