Accidental Cinnamon Gnocchi
I have one kid who eats tons of fruits and veggies but doesn’t like meat–or should I say has trouble chewing meat–dislike vs. unable to chew are two different things. Unfortunately, he was non-verbal the first 3 years of his life . . . and unable to express an opinion–other than choking! He also doesn’t like dairy. No meat, no dairy . . . sounds like an accidental vegan to me! He loves bread with butter but now that I’ve switched butter for Earth Balance . . .
One of my little guys favorite meals is gnocchi. I discovered at Target–Pumpkin gnocchi. How awesome, he loves pumpkin–so his favorite dinner just got better!
Go here for the original post on gnocchi with the recipe.
To make this recipe Vegan I used:
- brown sugar
- Earth Balance for the butter
- organic cinnamon
The pumpkin taste didn’t come through as much as I would have liked, but he ate two helpings!
Be Blessed.

sounds yummy!
Thanks Aunt Laura–this is super simple and is totally a pantry meal! This is the first time we have tried the “freeze dried” gnocchi but I prefer the frozen kind.
My husband has tried to make gnocchi and it was not that great . . . we may revisit that recipe.
Be Blessed.
