Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 package (16 oz) gnocchi
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 can (14 oz) diced tomatoes
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1 tablespoon tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
- Brown the beef: In a large skillet, brown the ground beef over medium heat until it’s fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess fat from the skillet.
- Sauté aromatics: Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes, or until the onions are translucent and fragrant.
- Create the sauce: Stir in the diced tomatoes, beef broth, tomato paste, and Italian seasoning. Bring the mixture to a simmer, allowing the flavors to meld together for about 5 minutes.
- Cook the gnocchi: Add the gnocchi to the skillet and cook according to package instructions, typically about 2-3 minutes, until the gnocchi float to the surface of the sauce.
- Season and serve: Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot, topped with grated Parmesan cheese.
Notes
Feel free to swap the ground beef for ground turkey or plant-based alternatives. Use fresh tomatoes when in season for added flavor.
