There is nothing better than having a frugal, easy recipe on hand that you know your entire family absolutely loves! Well, this gnocchi with chorizo is definitely one of those for our family, so I just had to share it with you. I am curious what your family thinks of this simple recipe!
I made this recipe in this video, so if you prefer watching the video and seeing a few more frugal dinners you should definitely watch this.
Notes
- You can easily make gnocchi yourself, or so I’ve been told. I have never tried it but it is definitely on my list of ‘have to try one day’.
- The Parmesan is listed as optional, because I wanted to make this a frugal recipe for whenever we really need a delicious, low budget meal. But it actually is not really optional. It is just so delicious with Parmesan that I would not recommend leaving it out unless you really have to!
- We eat this dish as a family of five. But our children eat quite a lot, so you might be able to feed more people with this amount of food. Just FIY.
- If you want to add more green, you could easily add spinach to the ‘sauce’ as well, or serve the gnocchi with a nice salad.
