Ingredients (serves 4)

• 1 (10-ounce) package of frozen, chopped spinach 
• 1 tablespoon olive oil 
• 1 (16-ounce) package of shelf-stable potato gnocchi (you can substitute frozen cauliflower gnocchi if available) 
• 2 links of cooked Italian chicken or turkey sausage, sliced in rounds or diced (optional) 
• 1 (14-ounce) can of artichoke hearts, drained and quartered 
• ¼ cup Parmesan cheese 

Preparation

• Place spinach in a microwave-safe dish and heat on high until thawed, stirring once or twice. Alternatively, place it in a bowl and let it thaw in the refrigerator overnight. 
• When cool enough to handle, working in batches, squeeze the water out of the spinach using your hands.  You want the spinach as dry as possible. 
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.  Add gnocchi and cook, stirring frequently, until browned, about 5 minutes. 
• Stir in sausage (if using), artichoke hearts, and spinach.  Cook, stirring, until heated through, about three minutes. 
• Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and serve.  Enjoy!
