Gnocchi with Prosciutto and Vegetables





This was a super simple, super delicious easy meal! You can use any gnocchi (you can even buy gnocchi in some grocery and specialty stores now, I've seen it at Super Target and World Market). I made a giant batch of it homemade, and flash froze them on cookie sheets individually, and keep them frozen in a Ziplock. There are lots of great recipes out there, try searching Food Network.com for "gnocchi + Mario Batali," and you'll come up with quite a few.

So this isn't really much of a recipe even. You cook the gnocchi for just a few minutes in boiling water (according to recipe or package directions), while cooking frozen vegetables in a skillet with olive oil (I used green beans). When the gnocchi are almost done, take them out and put them in a medium-high skillet (make sure it's HOT) with olive oil to give them a nice crust. It took me a few times to get this right. Add some prosciutto and the cooked vegetables and season. I like lemon pepper and garlic salt but you can use whatever you want. Enjoy!
