Prep Time 15 Min | Cook Time 30 Min | Serves 6

Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground sausage
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 24 oz traditional passata
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 3 celery stalks, diced
  • 2 carrots, diced
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 2 lb gnocchi pasta
  • 3 cups fresh spinach
  • 1/2 cup Parmesan, grated
  • 2 tsp fine sea salt
  • 1 tsp ground black pepper

Directions

  • Start by heating the extra virgin olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the ground sausage and cook until browned. Once the sausage is fully cooked, remove it and set aside.
  • In the same pot, add the onion, carrots, and celery. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften.
  • Stir in the garlic and cook for another minute until it becomes fragrant. Add the sausage back to the pot and mix in the Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper.
  • Pour in the passata, chicken broth, and spinach. Stir to combine. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes. Stir in the gnocchi and cook for an additional 3-5 minutes until the gnocchi is tender and floats to the top.
  • Top with Parmesan cheese and serve warm.
  • Enjoy!
