5 servings

  • 1 cup frozen chopped spinach
  • 1 (16 ounce) package gnocchi
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 1 (8 ounce) package crimini mushrooms, quartered
  • 3 stalks celery, diced
  • 1 (15 ounce) can cannellini beans
  • ⅓ cup french-fried onions
  • ¼ cup white wine
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon dried sage
  • ¾ cup vegan pesto
  • ½ cup vegetable broth

Instructions

  • Place spinach in a microwave-safe dish. Cover and microwave on high for 4 minutes. Separate with a fork and drain.
  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook gnocchi in the boiling water until they float to the top, 2 to 4 minutes. Drain and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until warm. Add mushrooms and cook until they begin to soften, about 3 minutes. Add celery, cover, and cook for 3 more minutes. Remove mushrooms and celery to a bowl.
  • Heat remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in the skillet. Add gnocchi and brown, flipping halfway through, 4 to 6 minutes. Add mushroom-celery mixture, cannellini beans, spinach, onions, wine, salt, and sage; simmer until heated through, about 3 minutes.
  • Mix together vegan pesto and vegetable broth in a small bowl. Pour into skillet over gnocchi and serve.
