I love this because it's so simple and yet delicious!

I only wish I had the patience to make my own gnocci from scratch, they're so much better than the store bought variety...unless you know of a brand that doesn't have the consistency of rubber?

yum! gnocchi is really easy to make, especially if you have potato flakes for mashed potatoes. I have a great recipe on my blog. Plus, it makes enough that you can use half and freeze the other half for another meal.

Here are some questions ..What type of gchonci did you use? (store-bought? brand?)Did you make them yourself?We make gchonci quite often, but we always boil them (like a pasta), then serve them with sauce. I've never even thought of frying them ..were they cooked all the way thru???THANKS!!!!
