    Sun-Dried Tomato Gnocchi

    Ingredients

    • ½ cup canned artichoke hearts
    • ½ cup julienne-cut sun-dried tomatoes
    • 1 (14-oz) can reduced-sodium chicken broth
    • 2 ½ cups water
    • 16 oz gnocchi pasta
    • 1 tablespoon butter
    • 1 tablespoon shredded Parmesan cheese

    Prep

    • Dice artichokes and tomatoes coarsely; set aside.

    Steps

    1. Reserve ¼ cup of the chicken broth; set aside. Combine remaining broth (about 1 ½ cups) and water; cover and bring to boil on high for gnocchi.
    2. Add gnocchi to boiling broth mixture (if needed, separate gnocchi before dropping into water). Cook and stir 4 minutes or until tender.
    3. Drain gnocchi. Return empty saucepan to medium-high heat. Place remaining ¼ cup chicken broth, artichokes, and tomatoes in pan; cook 2-3 minutes or until heated.
    4. Gently stir gnocchi, butter, and cheese into tomato mixture; cook 1 more minute or until butter and cheese melts. Serve.

    Serving Suggestions

  • Complete your meal with sourdough bread and pound cake with strawberries for dessert.
  • Add 1 more tablespoon each of the butter and cheese for even creamier gnocchi.
