Gnocchi and Sausage and Beans, Oh My!

The other night I made up this recipe and it was so tasty good.


I think I'll call this...


Herbed Gnocchi with Loaded Goodness


1 package gnocchi

1 pound of Italian Sausage (removed from casings and formed into balls)

2-3 cups of green beans, trimmed and blanched

1/4 cup fresh sage

1/4 cup fresh oregano

4 cloves of garlic

olive oil

paremsan cheese

pepper


Place water in pot to boil for gnocchi.


Heat a large skillet over medium high and place sausage balls in the skillet. Brown the sausage until cooked through. Once it is done, remove from the pan and place the green beans in the pan to sautee until tender and lightly browned. Return the sausage to the pan and and the sage. Pt gnocchi in to cook. When it is done, remove from pot and drain and place gnocchi in the skillet. Stir. Add in crushed garlic and oregano that has been minced.


Toss to combine and serve with pepper and parmesan cheese.


Throughout the cooking process you may find you need to add some olive oil to keep things from sticking - go ahead.


Enjoy!


This was delicious! Hubs said it was by far his favorite meal we've had. Even as I was blogging this he went oh yeah this is so blog worthy!
