I’m personally a huge fan of Gnocchi but my husband isn’t as convinced. However, we both really liked this meal and it’s extremely easy to make. The original recipe is by Sara Lewis but I’ve tweaked it to get the WW point values down a bit. I probably could have reduced it even further by using low cal spray instead of olive oil and butter.
