Step by Step Instructions
Step 1
Put a large pot of salted water on to boil for the gnocchi.
Melt a bit of butter in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat and sauté the onion and garlic until the onion becomes translucent – about 5 minutes, then add the beef, salt, and pepper, and sauté until the beef is browned then lower the heat and simmer until the gnocchi is ready.
Step 2
When the water is boiling add the gnocchi and cook to package instructions (usually about 2 minutes, until the gnocchi floats).
Step 3
When the gnocchi is done drain it and add it to the skillet with the sauce along with the tomatoes and a drizzle of olive oil. Mix well, then stir in the spinach and stir until the spinach is wilted, then serve into pasta bowls, sprinkle with a generous amount of fresh grated Parmesan, and enjoy!
