Ingredients

2 cups part-skim ricotta cheese
3/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 bunch spinach, stems removed
1 cup tomato sauce, canned
1/2 cup dried bread crumbs
1/4 cup all-purpose flour, extra
1/2 cup all-purpose flour, sifted

Instructions

1. Microwave or steam spinach until just wilted. Squeeze to remove excess water and chop finely.

2. Combine spinach, 1/2 cup of flour, cheeses and bread crumbs in a bowl.

3. Toss a tablespoon of mixture in extra flour and form into an oval. Repeat with remaining mixture to make 36 gnocchi.

4. Add gnocchi to a pot of simmering water and simmer, uncovered for 2 minutes. Gnocchi is cooked when it floats to surface.

5. Remove gnocchi from pan using a slotted spoon. Drain and keep warm.

8. Note: to maximize flavor, choose small spinach leaves with a crisp texture. They should give off a sweet aroma, not a sour or musty odor.
