What is Gnocchi?
Gnocchi is a traditional Italian dumpling made from a combination of flour, egg, salt, and potato. The ingredients can range based on where they are made, but they’re typically paired with a pasta sauce or soup. There are also variations made with other ingredients like this tofu gnocchi that’s high in protein.
Easy Trader Joe's Sweet Potato Gnocchi Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 Pack of Trader Joe’s Sweet Potato Gnocchi

Instructions
1. Place a large pan over a medium-heat stove top (the Always Pan is my fav). Add your sausage, minced garlic, onion, bell pepper, and saute until slightly browned. This should take around five minutes. Set aside in a separate bowl.
2. Add the sweet potato gnocchi to the pan and follow the cooking instructions on the packaging. (Add 2 tablespoons of water and cover for 3 minutes. Then remove the cover, stir, and cook for another 2 - 3 minutes.).
3. Add the rest of the ingredients that you had set aside back into the pan and mix with the sweet potato gnocchi.
4. Plate it and enjoy!
