Ingredients

  • 12 oz packaged gnocchi
  • 1 (10.5 oz) can vegetarian cream of mushroom soup (no meat stock)
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups chopped fresh spinach
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional, omit for vegan)
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • 1. Grease a 4-6 quart slow cooker with olive oil.
  • 2. Sauté minced garlic in a pan until fragrant, then add to the Crockpot.
  • 3. Add uncooked gnocchi, cream of mushroom soup, heavy cream, butter, and chopped spinach to the slow cooker.
  • 4. Stir to combine and season with salt and pepper.
  • 5. Cover and cook on LOW for 3-4 hours, until gnocchi is tender and the sauce is heated through.

Notes

For vegan version: substitute butter with olive oil and omit Parmesan cheese. Use fresh basil in place of spinach if preferred. Cooking time may vary based on gnocchi brand—test for doneness at the 3-hour mark.
