There you have it – roast pumpkin and brussels sprouts baked gnocchi! The combo of cheeses adds such good flavour, and the dish is creamy without being overpoweringly so. It still feels like a vaguely healthy dish with all those veggies!
If you’re not planning on serving it all at once, I recommend finishing it as you need it. Roast up the veggies in advance, then just cook the amount of gnocchi you need fresh, top with cheese and cook until melted and heated through. It still makes for a super quick dinner option, but is much better than reheating for the texture of the dish. That of course requires any leftovers that require reheating of course!
I highly recommend you add this roast pumpkin and brussels sprouts baked gnocchi to your meal plan!
