Instructions

  1. If you’re making broccoli (or roasting another vegetable to add to the dish), cut into florets and toss it with two tablespoons of oil and a pinch of salt. Bake at 400°F for 20 minutes.
  2. To make the cauliflower gnocchi, heat two tablespoons of oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Once hot, add in the frozen gnocchi (no need to thaw). Cover with a lid and let cook for 3 to 4 minutes.
  3. Remove the lid and flip the gnocchi, cooking until golden brown.
  4. Once browned to your liking, toss in the greens and pesto and stir until the greens are wilted.
