Ingredients 

  • A few swirls of olive oil
  • 1 package potato gnocchi, 16 oz.
  • ½ pint grape tomatoes, halved
  • ¼ cup prepared pesto sauce, more to taste
  • ¼ cup black olives, halved
  • Feta cheese, crumbled

Instructions 

  • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add gnocchi in a single layer and cook until browned, about 4-5 minutes. Turn gnocchi and cook, tossing occasionally, until browned to your taste. Add tomatoes and olives, cook for about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and add pesto and crumbled Feta. Stir.
  • Serve immediately!

Notes

  • This is the perfect meatless meal on its own, but feel free to add chopped cooked sausage if desired.

    Thanks for the question, Sarah! Usually it's on the same aisle as the pastas and spaghetti sauce.
