Makes: 4 servings
Total Time: 35 minutes
Ingredients:
- 2 12 oz bags of cauliflower gnocchi (I got mine from Trader Joe’s)
- 2-3 TBS of Ghee
- 1 lb of grass fed beef
- 1 tsp sea salt
- 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1 cup of baby spinach chopped
- 1 jar of your favorite marinara sauce (I use Rao’s because it doesn’t have added sugar and tastes amazing)
- Or your could make my meat sauce if you have more time
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
- 1/3 cup of almond milk shredded cheese (pic below)
What to do:
- IGNORE the package instructions for the gnocchi
- Let the gnocchi defrost and pat it dry with a paper towel – they will be sticky and that’s ok
- Heat a large skillet over medium high heat and melt 1 TBS of ghee
- Add your gnocchi in batches so that there is an even layer and no overlap (will have to do it in about 3 batches depending on how big your skillet is)
- Let the gnocchi sit for 3 minutes without touching them! Patience is key here!
- Flip the gnocchi and let them sit on this side for 3 minutes
- Repeat the flip until the gnocchi are browned and crispy
- Set your cooked gnocchi aside
- In the same skillet, brown your meat and season with the salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning
- Drain any liquid if necessary
- Add in your spinach and mix well until the spinach welts up
- Add your marinara sauce, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes and mix well
- Stir in your gnocchi and mix well
- Top with your almond milk shredded cheese and cover for 3-5 minutes
- Enjoy!!
