ONE-PAN SAUSAGE AND VEGGIES
First of all can we talk about gnocchi? Most often people prepare gnocchi by boiling it but have you tried pan frying it? It’s fabulous. Crisp potato dumpling outside, soft inside.
This meal is great because it’s so versatile. I used seasonal veggies but really the possibilities are endless.
INGREDIENTS
- ANDOUILLE SAUSAGE – This is a highly spiced sausage. If you want something a little milder you can substitute it with any smoked sausage, like kielbasa. You can use any type of sausage. You could also use beef sausage, chicken sausage or turkey sausage if you wanted.
- BELL PEPPERS – I like to use red bell pepper, orange bell pepper, or yellow bell peppers. Green peppers tend to get bitter when roasted for a long time.
- ZUCCHINI SQUASH – You can use yellow squash as well.
- FRESH CORN – Adds a hint of sweetness.
- OLIVE OIL – To help things to cook.
- GNOCCHI – This is made from potatoes. Some brands are gluten-free but not all! You can find it next to the pasta at the grocery store.
- PARMESAN CHEESE – A little Parmesan cheese on top is the best part.
