This Creamy Mushroom Gnocchi is the ultimate comfort food—soft, pillowy gnocchi coated in a rich mushroom and spinach sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb (450g) potato gnocchi (store-bought or homemade)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil or butter
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 8 oz (225g) cremini or mixed mushrooms, sliced
  • 2 cups fresh spinach
  • 1 cup heavy cream or coconut milk (for dairy-free option)
  • ½ cup vegetable broth (optional, to thin sauce)
  • ½ tsp dried thyme or Italian herbs
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • Grated Parmesan or vegan cheese, to serve (optional)
  • Sun-dried tomatoes or roasted red peppers for brightness

  • Mascarpone or cream cheese for extra richness
