Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings

  • 1 (18 ounce) package gnocchi

  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter

  • ½ cup sliced fresh mushrooms

  • 4 cloves garlic, minced

  • ¼ cup heavy whipping cream

  • ¾ cup reserved pasta water

  • 4 cups baby spinach

  • 1 (5.2 ounce) package garlic and herb cheese spread (such as Boursin®)

Directions

  1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook gnocchi in the boiling water until they float to the top, 2 to 4 minutes.

  2. Meanwhile, melt butter in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Add sliced mushrooms and sauté until softened, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Reduce heat, and pour in cream.

  3. Scoop out 3/4 cup of cooking water and set aside. Place spinach in the bottom of a colander and drain the gnocchi over the spinach to wilt it.

  4. Stir cheese into the skillet and add reserved cooking water; keep stirring until cheese is melted.

  5. Add gnocchi and wilted spinach to the skillet and stir until well combined. Serve immediately.
