ingredients

• 2 cups Simply Potatoes Traditional Mashed Potatoes
• 2 eggs
• 1⁄2 cup pesto sauce
• 1 1⁄2 cups all-purpose flour

directions

1. Using an electric mixer, whip mashed potatoes, eggs and 2 ½ tablespoons of pesto sauce in a large bowl until all the ingredients are well incorporated.
2. Add ¾ cup crumbled feta cheese and mix well. Gradually fold in flour.
3. Bring salted water to a boil in a large pot. Reduce heat slightly. Working with about 1 tablespoon at a time, drop a few gnocchi into salted water and cook for a few minutes, until they rise to the surface.
4. Using a slotted spoon, transfer gnocchi to a strainer to remove excess water. Repeat the process with the rest of the dough.
5. Serve warm topped with remaining pesto sauce and crumble feta cheese.
