    Summer Vegetable Gnocchi with Romano Cheese
    Title
    • ¾ lb Gnocchi
    • 4 oz Grape Tomatoes
    • 2 cloves Garlic
    • 1 Zucchini
    • 1 oz Salted Butter
    • ¼ cup Grated Romano Cheese
    • 1 Bell Pepper

    Summer Vegetable Gnocchi

    Prepare the ingredients
    1 Prepare the ingredients

    Fill a medium pot 3/4 of the way up with salted water; cover and heat to boiling on high. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Halve the zucchini lengthwise, then thinly slice crosswise. Cut off and discard the stem of the pepper. Halve lengthwise; remove the ribs and seeds, then thinly slice crosswise. Peel and roughly chop 2 cloves of garlic. Halve the tomatoes; place in a bowl and season with salt and pepper.

    2 Cook the vegetables

    In a large pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the sliced zucchini in an even layer. Cook, without stirring, 2 to 3 minutes, or until lightly browned. Add the sliced pepper and chopped garlic; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, 2 to 3 minutes, or until softened. Add the seasoned tomatoes. Cook, stirring constantly, 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until slightly softened. Turn off the heat.

    3 Cook the gnocchi

    Meanwhile, add the gnocchi to the pot of boiling water. Cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 minutes, or until the gnocchi float to the top of the pot. Turn off the heat. Reserving 1/2 cup of the gnocchi cooking water, drain thoroughly.

    4 Finish the gnocchi & serve your dish

    To the pan of cooked vegetables, add the cooked gnocchi, butter, half the cheese, a drizzle of olive oil, and half the reserved gnocchi cooking water. Cook on medium-high, stirring constantly, 1 to 2 minutes, or until the butter is melted and the gnocchi are coated (if necessary, gradually add the remaining cooking water to ensure the gnocchi are thoroughly coated). Turn off the heat. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired. Serve the finished gnocchi garnished with the remaining cheese. Enjoy!
