Sheet pan meals are some of my favorite things to make. Not only are they quick on the clean-up, but you can pack so much flavor into one pan - and, they are so fast. This Sheet Pan Baked Gnocchi and Veggies takes gnocchi to a new level and pairs it with lots of colorful veggies. The gnocchi gets a little toasty on the outside and pillowy on the inside. Paired with lots of vegetables, this sheet pan meal is well-rounded and low on calories. Feel free to toss in your favorite alfredo or red sauce after it comes out of the oven for a little extra twist. Enjoy!

What’s special about these Gnocchi & Veggies

Gnocchi: Gnocchi is a pasta-like dumpling made from potatoes, some flour, and sometimes some cheese. Because of its hearty consistency, it can stand up to lots of flavors. If you’re feeling bold, you can make your own gnocchi, or just use a store-bought version.

Veggies: For this, I’m using some peppers, broccoli, and red onion. The red onion provides a nice powerful note and a nice contrast to the broccoli and peppers. Feel free to use whatever combination of veggies you like!

Spices: I love pairing gnocchi with traditional Italian seasonings. Gnocchi feels like a hug, and I think Italian seasonings also feel like a warm embrace. They make a perfect pairing. And, of course, garlic. I also like my dishes a little spicy, so I added in some red pepper flakes. If you don’t like spice, feel free to leave these out!
