Gnocchi with Sage and Sautéed Mushrooms is a rich and flavorful meatless meal that gets its heartiness from the gorgeous mushrooms added to the mix. Just a bit of fresh sage adds nice flavor to this dish that’s quick to cook, too.
Mushrooms are a favorite of mine, and whenever I go to Seattle at just the right time, I hit up the farmers markets in search of chanterelle mushrooms to bring back with me to Phoenix. These trumpet-like beauties are pretty expensive in my area, so I scoop up some of what Seattle offers, and head home a happy gal.
To prepare them to use later, I sauté them in butter and olive oil, and when they’re at room temperature, pack them away in the freezer to use another time. When I decided to make Gnocchi with Sage and Sautéed Mushrooms, I instantly thought of those special little packets in my freezer. The chanterelles would be perfect in this dish. I mixed them with cremini mushrooms because I tend to hoard my chanterelles, but mixing them works well!
Is there a Kroger Family of Brands grocery store near you? Fry’s Food Stores are located in the Phoenix area where I live. In fact, there’s a Fry’s just around the corner from my house – could it get any better for a food blogger?
You may have noticed a fun event going on at your local store: Taste of Italy. Fry’s stores in my area have been featuring all sorts of Italian foods and promotions as part of this campaign. Getting hearty and delicious Italian dishes on your table couldn’t be easier when you have great ingredients to choose from.
I was invited to participate in the #TasteofItaly challenge that included all sorts of fun activities. One was to create a delicious Italian dish from the list of recipes on the Fry’s Italian World Flavor website. Gnocchi with Sage and Sautéed Mushrooms was my first choice to make, and I barely changed their recipe. It’s a very simple, yet flavorful dish, and it’s on the table in less than 30 minutes.
Use your favorite mushrooms to make Gnocchi with Sautéed Mushrooms, and whatever you do, don’t forget the sage – it adds great flavor to this hearty, meatless meal.
