Looks and sounds delish! Love your recipes!


This is a wonderful posting! I love the idea of using the zucchini this way... saving, rating and I have got to and am adding your recipe to a few groups! (more now that I see, that you have already added it too -lol) Now people have yet another great recipe to use their extra zucchini they grow in the summer with.


Wonderful recipe, extremely appetizing, one to impress with. Thank you for sharing.


This looks so good. I taught my 15 year old to make gnocchi awhile back, now she will have to go gourmet with it. Thanks for a great post.


Love it. Gnocchi are delicious and veggies seem a new and healthy twist on the heavier buttery sauce version. Have to cook very soon. Thanks for sharing.


This sounds amazing...guess what we're having for dinner tonight!
