- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 bags gnocchi see ingredient notes
- 9 ounces jarred marinara sauce
- 2 jarred roasted red peppers
- 2 cloves of garlic
- ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 2 cups organic baby spinach
- ¼ cup crumbled goat cheese
Cook gnocchi according to package directions.
Meanwhile, combine marinara sauce, roasted red peppers, garlic and red pepper flakes if desired in the blender and blend until smooth.
Combine the sauce and cooked gnocchi in a large skillet. Let it bubble for about a minute, making sure all pieces are coated, then cover and continue to simmer for about 3 more minutes.
In the last minute of cooking, add the baby spinach to the top and cover once again, allowing it to steam and wilt.
When finished, carefully stir in the spinach to distribute. Sprinkle goat cheese {or preferred cheese} over the top. Serve hot.
