One Pot Gnocchi and Cauliflower

Step 1

Heat a large pot over medium heat. Brown the sausage, keeping it in larger chunks, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and reserve. Drizzle in the olive oil, then add the cauliflower, onion and garlic. Give the pot a stir and cook until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the tomato paste and a big pinch each of salt and pepper. Stir to coat.

Step 2

Deglaze with the wine, scraping the pot as you pour. Stir in the chicken stock, tomato sauce and pesto, then bring to a boil. Add the gnocchi and reserved sausage, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook, stirring frequently, until the gnocchi are tender and the sauce has thickened, 6 to 7 minutes.

Step 3

Stir in the cream cheese and kale, then taste. Adjust the seasoning as needed.

Step 4

Serve garnished with the grated Parmesan and torn basil leaves.
