This was very good--and for once, I made as written! Next time, I would make a few adjustments. I would cut the pepper in half (personal taste), and add half again the amount of spinach and gnocchi. Very easy for a good weeknight dinner and definitely a keeper! Thank you!

This was so easy and so good. We used frozen spinach, but otherwise made as written, thanks for sharing.

Very easy and quick to prepare! I made as written except used 2 cloves of garlic. Very tasty! I think next time I will omit the salt. Thanks for sharing!
