Was not very happy with this recipe. I had to play around with it a lot. I had to use two cans of tomatoes, otherwise it would have been dry. There was virtually no flavor, so I added salt, pepper, and italian seasoning. Also, my family agreed that it would have been better to mix the cheese in with the gnocchi instead of putting it on top, then sprinkling parmesean on top to broil. I give it two stars as a great starter recipe. -
Can't believe I've forgotten to rate this recipe. I make it often and love it. I often add in some veggies like sliced mushrooms, diced peppers, etc. It's such a delicious, satisfying, budget friendly and healthy meal Thank you! -
Was a little too watery for my liking. But it was still very yummy and I love that its low in cals and fat.
