Equipment

1 large sheet pan
Cutting board and knife
Mixing bowl (optional, or mix right on the pan)
Wooden spoon or spatula

Ingredients

16 ounces potato gnocchi uncooked
12 ounces Italian sausage sliced (mild or spicy)
1 pint grape tomatoes
1 red bell pepper diced
1 small onion diced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon dried rosemary crushed
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 teaspoons fennel seeds
Salt to taste
Black pepper to taste
1 –2 cups fresh greens spinach, arugula, or kale

Instructions

Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Prep the ingredients: Slice the sausage, dice the onion and peppers, and keep the gnocchi ready.
Toss everything together: On a large sheet pan, combine gnocchi, sausage, tomatoes, bell pepper, onion, olive oil, rosemary, garlic powder, fennel seeds, salt, and black pepper. Toss well so everything is coated.
Spread evenly: Spread in a single layer to help everything crisp up.
Bake: Roast for 20–25 minutes, stirring halfway through, until gnocchi is golden and sausage is cooked through.
Add greens: Once out of the oven, toss in fresh spinach or arugula so they wilt slightly.
Serve warm: Plate it up straight from the sheet pan for an easy dinner.
