Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium yellow onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups vegetable broth (or chicken broth)
  • 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 pound gnocchi (potato gnocchi recommended)
  • 2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.

  3. Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Pour in vegetable broth and undrained diced tomatoes. Stir to combine.

  6. Stir in heavy cream, oregano, basil, and red pepper flakes (if using). Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  9. Stir gnocchi into the soup and simmer for 2-3 minutes to heat through.
  10. Remove from heat and stir in cheddar and Parmesan cheese until melted.
  11. Adjust consistency with more broth if too thick, or simmer uncovered to reduce if too thin.
  12. Serve immediately, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.

Notes
