Add remaining garlic powder and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds. • Stir in 1⁄3 cup water (½ cup for 4), stock concentrate, and cream cheese. Bring to a simmer, stirring, until combined and creamy, 2-3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
Step 5
• Stir tomatoes and spinach into pan with sauce. Cook, stirring, until spinach is wilted and tomatoes are softened, 3-4 minutes.
Step 6
• Stir drained gnocchi into pan with sauce until thoroughly coated. (TIP: If sauce seems too thick, stir in a splash of water.) Taste and season with salt and pepper. • Divide gnocchi between bowls and top with Parmesan. Sprinkle with as many garlic butter breadcrumbs as you like. Add a pinch of chili flakes to taste and serve.
