Scanning through a cookbook for ZWT3 and came on this recipe. Since I had a tin of broad beans and some gnocchi in the freezer, decided it would be a quick and simple Saturday supper. With the canned beans, this was supper quick and supper was on the table in less than 30 minutes. The beans and gnocchi are an odd combination, but they actually work together well because the garlic laced tomato sauce unifies the two ingredients. A lttle shaved parmesan and a good dose of fresh basil and your set for a delicious meal. I would imagine that fresh/fozen broad beans would be even better.
