Well folks, this post brings us to the end of the blogathon. While I've had a lot of fun blogging everyday this month, I'm ready for a little break! Enjoy this follow-up recipe to yesterday's homemade gnocchi recipe while I take a step back from the blog for just a bit. I picked out an extra rich one to keep you full while I'm away. ;)

Enjoy! I'm sure I'll be back on Friday with another edition of Freebie Friday!

Make Your Own Gnocchi
Last week I posted a very simple gnocchi recipe just to get you, and myself, started. This weekend, I did a little digging and found this recipe (with a 5 star rating no less) to make your own gnocchi from scratch! Wowee! If you have some time like I am going to over the next couple weeks (schoooooool's out for summer!) maybe you'd like to whip up a batch!
Check out this Food Network recipe by Michael Chiarello for potato gnocchi!
I promise to post with pictures when I make it...and I can't wait to get a potato ricer!!

Never Pokey Gnocchi
So last night I had a dinner dilemma (aka...I forgot to thaw anything...oops). I had had a similar problem the night before but was able to redeem myself with the last batch of the Italian Tortellini Soup in the freezer. Instant dinner. Glorious. However, my freezer is now lacking in the "instant dinner" department. In fact, it's just plain lacking in general. Schnucks trip anyone?
Where was I? Ah yes...so dinner. Well I at least had enough sense to buy a jar of Schnucks Chunky Garden Pasta Sauce the last time I was at the store so I figured a little pasta with marinara was in order. Until I opened the cabinet that hold the pasta and realized I had a package of fresh potato gnocchi! I've never made gnocchi before but the package recipe said to just top with sauce and parmesan cheese...done and done. Now you know me, of course I had to doctor up the sauce a bit with some Italian seasonings, but after letting that simmer on the stove for a few minutes and popping some rolls in the oven, the gnocchi only took about 3 minutes in a pot of boiling water to be ready! How cool is that? Top with sauce and parm and serve. No dinner to dinner in less than 10 minutes. Gotta love a meal like that!
Now I'm on the hunt for more gnocchi recipes...I have a feeling this is gonna be good! :)
