Ingredients

  • 1 bunch spinach, stems removed
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour, sifted
  • 2 cups part-skim ricotta cheese
  • 3/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup dried bread crumbs
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, extra
  • 1 cup tomato sauce, canned

Directions

  • Microwave or steam spinach until just wilted. Squeeze to remove excess water and chop finely.
  • Combine spinach, 1/2 cup of flour, cheeses and bread crumbs in a bowl.
  • Toss a tablespoon of mixture in extra flour and form into an oval. Repeat with remaining mixture to make 36 gnocchi.
  • Add gnocchi to a pot of simmering water and simmer, uncovered for 2 minutes. Gnocchi is cooked when it floats to surface.
  • Remove gnocchi from pan using a slotted spoon. Drain and keep warm.
  • Heat sauce in microwave.
  • Serve drizzled over gnocchi.
  • Note: to maximize flavor, choose small spinach leaves with a crisp texture. They should give off a sweet aroma, not a sour or musty odor.
