  1. We really enjoyed this. It did have a lot of ingredients though, and many strong flavored ones, so a bit overpowering for gnocchi. We love each one of these ingredients individually; my favorite parts with the gnocchi were the artichoke hearts, basil and garlic (which I let sit in the oil and vinegar while everything else was prepared). We did not use the reserved 1/3 cup of oil, we prefer much less, so the one tablespoon plus drained artichokes was plenty for us. I think pine nuts would make a good sub for the walnuts. Overall, I was really glad to have tried a new way to have gnocchi, and it was a quick weeknight meal and quite tasty as well.
     
  2. This WAS good. I used a fresh red pepper instead of the pimentos (grilled capsicums:D) and canned artichoke hearts instead of marinated ones. So instead of the extra oil I addded a bit more vinegar, which is how I prefer my salads. Oh, I used kalamata olives too. I almost overcooked the gnocchi, which would have been disastrous, so watch yours carefully! Thanks for the recipe.
