John I really enjoy pasta bake dishes, usually for their ingredients as well as their simplicity. They are typically quick & easy to prepare and provide a lovely full flavoured heartening meal.
Pasta bake dishes do not come much easier than this one. Using only a few ingredients to create a wonderful meal to please the family.
The gnocchi is initially cooked before being mixed with mascarpone, prosciutto, spinach and cherry tomatoes. Topped with parmesan before finishing under the grill. A lovely simple & easy to make gnocchi dish that provides a nice alternate to the cream based pasta dishes.
The beauty of this meal is that it can be prepared and made in about 30 minutes.
