Easy Sheet Pan Pesto Gnocchi

A delightful meal featuring pillowy gnocchi, vibrant pesto, and seasonal vegetables, all roasted together for easy cleanup and maximum flavor.

Ingredients

  • 1 package gnocchi (about 16 oz)
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes
  • 1 cup zucchini, diced
  • 1 cup bell pepper, diced
  • 1/4 cup pesto
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Prepare the vegetables by washing and dicing the zucchini and bell peppers, and halving the cherry tomatoes. Spread them evenly on a large sheet pan.
  3. Add the uncooked gnocchi onto the sheet pan with the vegetables.
  4. Drizzle olive oil over the mixture, add salt, pepper, and half of the pesto, then toss everything well.
  5. Roast in the oven for about 15 minutes, or until tender and golden.
  6. Add remaining pesto over the top, toss to combine, and roast for an additional 5 minutes.
  7. Serve warm, perhaps with cheese or a side salad.

Notes

For best results, use fresh pesto and avoid overcrowding the pan.
