Cheeseburger gnocchi reminds me of a childhood canned favorite, RavioliOs, but taken to a whole new level. Making this dish wasn’t a whole lot harder than just opening a can either. Grab a big bowl on a cold day and you’ll definitely forget the weather. Creamy, cheesy, tomato-y beefy stick-to-your-ribs total goodness.
The Perfect Cold Weather Dish
I can’t say I’d change much about this recipe for cheeseburger gnocchi. It really hit the spot after shoveling snow from the driveway. I might substitute spicy bulk Italian sausage for the beef for a little kick and Italian-inspired flavor.
This cheeseburger gnocchi has me jonesin’ for some cheeseburger soup now.
