Preparation:
In a large bowl, mix all the ingredients except the tomato sauce.
Preheat the oven to 350*
Using 2 soup spoons, form gnocchi into oval or egg shapes using a little
less than 1/4 cup of the mixture for each. There should be about twenty
21/2-inch-long gnocchi. Place them close together, but not touching, in
a buttered 13 1/2 x 8 inch baking dish. Cover the gnocchi tomato sauce
and bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until hot. Serve immediately.
Note: Sometimes a white sauce is used in addition to the tomato sauce.
Spread the baking dish with the white sauce before adding the gnocchi. |
