Gluten Free Mini Gnocchi with Tri Color Bell Peppers

Dinner tonight started with the blank canvas of gluten free gnocchi by DeLallo Foods. I added colorful bell peppers and sage to flavor the dish. The color of the meal satisfied the eyes and the texture and taste satisfied the palate.

Ingredients:

• 1 box of DeLallo Gluten Free Mini Gnocchi
• 3 bell peppers ... 1 red, 1 yellow, and 1 green
• 2 tbsps dried sage
• 1/2 red onion
• 3 cloves of garlic 
• olive oil (to coat the pan) 
• 1/4 cup water

Instructions

• Dice the onion and garlic and sautee until translucent
• Use a mandolin to thinly slice the bell peppers and add 1/2 the peppers to the pan with the translucent onion and garlic
• Add 1 tbsp dried sage and water and cook until liquid is gone
• Biol the water to prepare to cook the gnocci (follow directions on box)
• While the water is boiling ... place 1/2 of the remaining sliced peppers (1/4) on the plate as a base layer
• Add gnocchi to the water and cook until gnocchi floats (about 2-4 minutes)
• Add the gnocchi to the pan, the remaining 1/4 of the sliced peppers, 1 tbsp dried sage, and 1/2 cup of the gnocchi water. Cook until water is absorbed
• Serve atop the bed of peppers
• Add salt and pepper to taste (if you wish)

NOTE: Adding the bell peppers at different stages of cooking ensures many different textures are achieved in this dish!
