- 1 lb Spicy Italian Sausage
- 16 oz Potato Gnocchi
- 1 Crushed Tomatoes
- 0.5 cup Heavy Cream
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 5 oz Spinach
- 0.25 cup Parmesan Cheese
- 1 tbsp Olive Oil

Instructions
Heat olive oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add Italian sausage, breaking it up with a spoon, and cook until browned and cooked through. Drain excess fat.
Add minced garlic to the skillet and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Stir in crushed tomatoes and bring to a simmer.
Add gnocchi and heavy cream to the skillet. Stir gently and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until gnocchi are tender and the sauce has thickened slightly.
Stir in fresh spinach until wilted. Remove from heat and stir in grated Parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot, with extra Parmesan if desired.
