Katie’s One-Pot Sausage Gnocchi Bake

This flavorful, veggie-packed one-pot dish is simple to throw together any night of the week. Mix your favorite store-bought gnocchi and marinara sauce with a few other ingredients for the easiest, most delicious meal. My daughter doesn’t like anything green, but she loves tomatoes, so for this recipe, I like to grate a zucchini and cook it with the sausage and marinara sauce, and she loves it!

Preparation

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

  4. Add the zucchini and cook for 1-2 minutes, until softened.
  5. Remove from the heat and stir in the marinara sauce, gnocchi, chicken stock, ¼ cup Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and the remaining ¼ teaspoon salt until well combined.
