1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes (OMIT OR INCREASE TO TASTE) .
1 (32 oz) can sliced tomatoes .
1 (16 oz) can crushed tomatoes .
1 tbsp garlic powder .
1 tsp olive oil
Directions
Step #1 Boil Gnocci.
Step #2 Chop sausages into 1/2 inch peices, add oil to a frying pan, & put sausage into pan so each peice is lying flat, & let simmer on low setting for 3-5 mins, just until the sausage is browned to your liking (i tend to like mine almost black).
Step #3 Once the sausages are browned, garlic, along with oregano, basil & parmesan cheese, add Crushed tomatoe & sliced tomatoe directly into the pan, red pepper if desired.
Step #4 Mix ingredients well & cover pan.
Step #5 once the gnocci is boiled, drain it & add it along with the green beans to the sausage sauce mixture.
Step #6 the spices need 15-20 mins to incorporate into the sauces.
Step #7 *spicy lovers note: make this dish a day in advance, the red pepper flakes need much more time to spread into the mixture*.
