Afternoons with my daughters are always pretty busy: pick them up at school, do homework, take them to their activities, return to the house. Many days I only have 30 minutes to make dinner at home so I have always have these quickly prepared alternative at hand. I recommend you plan ahead so you have everything thawed and ready to cook. You will not regret this gnocchi is delicious.
