This is one of my favourite meals, but Gnocchi is super filing so remember, you won't need as much as you think you will. Especially because Gnocchi needs to be eaten when hot, letting it go cold turns it into a congealed mess and its not so good!

Definitely one to be served very hot!

Enjoy! xoxox
