I was just getting ready to post this recipe! I also found it on the eating well web site. I made a couple of changes, I used fresh baby spinach instead of the chard (I think it is bitter), and I used Italian style stewed tomatoes. I precooked the gnocchi in boiling water so they would be fluffy. I browned them in the skillet once they were cooked. This is an awesome recipe, and full of good things. Can't wait to have the left overs tomorrow!

I love gnocchi skillet fried like this! I had been trying to figure out a way to cook gnocchi that I actually liked, and this did the trick. I couldn't stop snacking on the crispy-on-the-outside, soft-on-the-inside little treats. The recipe as a whole was a little heavy for me, but I think it would be great on a cold and rainy day. Thanks for the novel idea.

Really tasty dinner! The golden fried gnocchi were so good. All the ingredients complimented each other well. Next time I would like to soften up the tomatoes and chard a bit longer before adding the beans. In fact I think this would be great with garden tomatoes and plan to use this recipe in concert with Recipe #204002. Will add fresh garden basil and oregano too. Thanks!
