Easy Sheet Pan Sweet Potato Gnocchi
A cozy and simple vegetarian dinner made quickly on one sheet pan.
recipesbynani.comThis sweet potato gnocchi has become a favorite in our house because it is so comforting and requires very little cleanup. It is one of those recipes that feels fancy but actually comes together in minutes after a quick stop at Trader Joe's.
My best tip for this dish is to make sure you do not overcrowd your sheet pan. Giving the gnocchi and veggies plenty of space helps them get nice and crispy in the oven rather than just steaming.
🧺 Ingredients
- 1 package Trader Joe's sweet potato gnocchi
- 1 bunch kale, chopped
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup toasted pecans
- Salt and black pepper to taste
👩🍳Instructions
- 1
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
- 2
Place the frozen sweet potato gnocchi, chopped kale, and cherry tomatoes on a large rimmed baking sheet.
- 3
Drizzle everything with olive oil and season well with salt and pepper.
- 4
Toss the ingredients gently until they are evenly coated.
- 5
Spread the mixture out into a single layer on the pan.
- 6
Bake for about 20 minutes or until the gnocchi is soft and the kale is crispy.
- 7
Remove from the oven, sprinkle with parmesan cheese and toasted pecans, then serve warm.
💡 Tips
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two days. Reheat the gnocchi in a skillet over medium heat to bring back some of that crispy texture. This dish also tastes great with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice right before eating.
