Sauce for Gnocchi - does this sound gross?

[ilovespinach]

Going to try gnocchhi (sp??) for lunch for ds2 14 months.

He's not that keen on tom sauce and anything tom coloured normally gets chucked on the floor. So I was going to serve it mixed with a bit of Philly and with carrots and peas. Does this sound gross???

Anyone else have any ideas - if all fails I will be reaching for the cheese on toast

It doesn't sound gross!

Other ideas - with pesto, with a mushroomy sauce, with olive oil.

Sounds yum. Ds used to love gnocchi as a toddler. I just used to mix some grated cheese in with it so it melted, plus some butter. The gnocchi has a nice gentle flavour anyway so you don't want to mask it. Remember to cook it just for a minute or two or it will get v. soggy. It is quite filling and perfect finger food. Enjoy!

We usually just grate some cheese over it.

Or mix with a bit of pesto
yum. My kids both love it!

You can make a very quick cheese sauce for gnocchi by melting a little freshly grated parmesan in some double cream.

will try the grated cheese option

thanks
