Preparation

Step 1

Cook the gnocchi according to the package directions, reserving 1/4 cup of the cooking liquid. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook until softened, about 5 min. Add the sausage and cook, crumbling it with a spoon, until browned, 5-7 min. Add the garlic, spinach, salt, and pepper and cook, tossing frequently, until the spinach wilts, about 3 min. Add the drained gnocchi, the reserved cooking liquid, and the Parmesan and toss. Divide among individual bowls and sprinkle with additional Parmesan.
