Perfect for busy weeknights or whenever you’re craving something hearty and delicious!

Ingredients You’ll Need:

• 16 oz gnocchi

• ½ red onion, chopped

• 1 lb ground beef

• 14.5 oz diced tomatoes

• ½ cup crumbled feta cheese

• 3 slices mozzarella

• 10 whole garlic cloves

• 1 cup chicken broth

• Extra virgin olive oil (EVOO)

• 1 tbsp butter

• 1 tbsp each: garlic powder, garlic salt, and dried basil

• 5 fresh sage leaves

• Salt and pepper to taste

How to Make It:

1. Sauté the aromatics: Heat a large skillet with a drizzle of EVOO over medium heat. Add the garlic and onions, sautéing for 3-5 minutes until softened and fragrant.

2. Cook the beef: Add the ground beef to the skillet. Season with garlic powder, salt, pepper, and fresh sage. Cook for 10-12 minutes, breaking up the beef until fully browned (drain excess fat if you prefer a leaner dish).

3. Build the base: Stir in the diced tomatoes and chicken broth. Add the gnocchi, butter, feta, and a sprinkle of garlic salt, basil, and pepper.

4. Simmer: Bring the mixture to a boil for 2-3 minutes, then reduce to a simmer. Let the flavors meld while stirring occasionally.

5. Get cheesy: Lay slices of mozzarella over the gnocchi mixture and gently mix until melted and gooey.

6. Serve: Garnish with fresh parsley and adjust seasoning to taste. Serve straight from the skillet for the ultimate comfort-food experience.
