Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb potato gnocchi
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and black pepper
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes optional
  • 4 cups baby spinach
  • ½ cup crumbled feta

Method
 

  1. Before You Begin
  2. Preheat and prepare your cookware as needed. Cooking times may vary depending on your equipment and ingredients.
  3. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a large sheet pan with parchment paper.
  4. Place gnocchi on the sheet pan. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat and spread into a single layer.
  5. Roast for 20–25 minutes, flipping once halfway through, until golden and lightly crisp.
  6. Remove from the oven and scatter spinach over the hot gnocchi. Let it wilt for 2–3 minutes.
  7. Sprinkle feta over the top, gently toss, and serve immediately while crisp.
  8. Cooking Notes
    Servings: This recipe makes about 4 servings, depending on portion size.
    Prep Time: Allow 10 minutes to prepare ingredients and line the baking sheet.
    Cook Time: Gnocchi roast for 20–25 minutes, flipping once for even browning.
    Total Time: Plan for about 35 minutes from start to finish.
    Oven Temperature: Roast at 425°F (220°C) for crisp edges and tender centers.
    Texture Tip: For best crispness, spread gnocchi in a single layer with space between pieces.
    Spinach Timing: Add spinach after roasting so it wilts gently without releasing excess moisture.
    Cheese Finish: Add feta at the end so it softens slightly without fully melting.
    Equipment Note: Cooking times may vary depending on oven performance, pan size, and gnocchi brand.
