Baked Gnocchi and veggies

I'm reminiscing about this meal when I  still had an oven.  We had it 2 weeks ago but I didn't get chance to post it and share. It's a meal you can put together using pantry items.

Gnocchi is  certainly a great pantry item to have on hand. So many things you can do with it from soup to serving with pasta sauce to baking.  Yes, baking.  I'd never thought to bake it until I read a recipe from Joanne at Eats Well with Others.

If you have a large sheet pan with tall sides this will work a charm.

Joanne didn't add chicken but I did.  Cause I love chicken :-)

Here is the end result with leftovers tossed in a casserole dish with a cover.  Perfect for reheating the next evening, or for lunch.

The verdict on this dish is middle of the road. I think I ought to have baked this longer so the gnocchi would have been crunchier. Also, using whole cherry or grape tomatoes wasn’t great & I need to half them next time. The tomatoes are good roasted but a pain to eat when they are whole.  Otherwise, great meal where you can asparagus or green beans or whatever you fancy.   I would try this again with  alonger cooking time.
