Browned Butter Gnocchi with Broccoli and Pine Nuts



Here's another great one for the meatless meals hall of fame!

serves 6 ( about 1-1/2 c. gnocchi mixture and 2 tsp. cheese = 10 points +)

  • 2 ( 16 oz.) packages potato gnocchi
  • 5 c. chopped broccoli florets
  • 2 T. butter
  • 2 T. olive oil
  • 1/4 tsp. pepper
  • 3 T. pine nuts, toasted
  • 1/3 c. shaved fresh pecorino Romano


Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add gnocchi and broccoli. Cook until gnocchi rises to the top of the water; drain.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the butter and olive oil. Cook until butter is browned. Add gnocchi mixture and pepper to the pan and toss to coat. Place mixture in a serving dish. Top with shaved cheese.
