Recipe Reviews
Love this gnocchi with ham though I didn't add the peas this time around because they weren't too tasty.
Happy with how this baked gnocchi turned out, very delicious as expected from a meal on this site, thx.
Going to be baking this master piece again soon its too good to only eat once a week!
Tasty Italian meal, can't ask for anything more thnaks so much for sharing this!
Accidently used salted butter instead of unsalted! Please be wary of the differences because they are HUGE! With the salted butter it was really bitter.
Great and easy to make, didn't go with the frozen peas instead used some fresh ones.
Made this and pumpkin potato gnocchi for a house party, everyone favored this one more, it's a real crowd pleaser.
Kids gobbled the whole thing right up, it was super yummy as they would say haha.
Again with the awesome recipes Jeff! Going to try this one out tonight hopefully it turns out just as good as your other recipes.
Delicious and easy to cook creamy gnocchi, can't way to make this again for my mother next week :)
Took me longer than 45 minutes but it wasn't bad just not happy with the amount of time spent on it.
Well done! Verified!
