Looking for a simple pasta dish? I have you.
What if this recipe requires zero chopping, only one bread and a total of 8 ingredients? ! It starts with browning the Italian sausage and toasted gnocchi, then you add frozen peas, small dijon, soup, lemon juice and stir in the grated parmesan and torn basil. It’s really incredibly easy and even tasty! It is one of the best recipes for the week or night or night who want something that can be easily prepared with some dishes to clean later.
I like to serve this with torn crusty bread and sometimes simple arugula salad.

To make this Italian sausage and sweet pean gnocchi:
Italian Sausages – Use hot, mild or sweet Italian sausages. Gnocchi (stable shelf) – I’ll make it myself one day, but for now I like the Delallo brand (not a sponsor). Frozen sweet peas – no need to thaw, just throw them and they will thaw and heat in a few minutes. Dijon Mustard – lends you a flavour and creaminess. Low Sodic Chicken Soup – or if you don’t have it on hand, you can replace it with water. Lemon Juice – Adds brightness and subtle citrus flavor. Kosher Salt – Enhances the flavor of this dish. Freshly ground black pepper – lends a unique bite and flavour. Parmesan cheese – Use freshly grated and used for best results. Fresh Basil – lends you a bright herbaceous flavour.
Brown Italian sausages:
Add 1 pound of Italian sausage, 10-12 inch skillet, preferably non-stick. I personally like hot Italian sausages, but mild or sweet too can work.
Use a spatula to break the sausage and cook over medium heat. Continue cooking until it turns brown and no longer pink.
Once fully cooked, use a slot spoon to transfer the cooked Italian sausages to a clean plate and leave fat in the pan.
Cheers to Gnokki:
Next, add 1 pound (shelf stable) gnocchi to the reserved fat in the bread.
Cook for 5-6 minutes or until gnocchi is golden and toasted with spots. Obviously, I wasn’t thinking about this pot when pulling out and using it. Once toasted, remove the gnocchi in another bowl or plate.
Make pasta dishes:
Return the cooked Italian sausages to the pot.
Next, add 10 ounces of frozen sweet peas. 1 tablespoon of Dijon Mustard.
Next, pour in 1/2 cup low sodium chicken soup.
Squeeze the juice from 1/2 of the lemon.
Finally, season with 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Mix well.
Once the peas have thawed, bring the gnocchi back into the bread along with 3/4 cups of rustic Parmesan cheese. Cook, stirring frequently, for 6 minutes or until the gnocchi is tender.
Remove from the heat and add a handful of torn fresh basil. Taste and add salt if necessary.
Mix and serve immediately.
Divide into a bowl and top with a little extra Parmesan cheese and fresh basil.
Delicious served with a firm bread and a chilled glass of white wine!
