So good! I used spinach, miyokos mozzarella, follow your heart parm and vegan sausage because it's what I had on hand and it was a delight. Thanks for all your amazing recipes that never disappoint.

What a lovely, comforting winter meal. I veganised it and it turned out perfectly. It's so quick and easy to put together and it freezes/reheats well. Really delicious, thanks :)

This was amazing!  I am a vegan so used Field Roast apple sage sausage added roasted spring onions and extra Italian spices. Topped with Vegan mozzarella and parm. So good!! Thank you

A perfect, hearty Friday night stay-at-home dish! I had to make some subs;  used a combo of diced and crushed tomatoes,  and a cup of Rao’s marinara. Also added mushrooms, (always add those when I can!), sprinkled shredded FYH, (Follow Your Heart), Mozzarella and then grated FYH Parmesan. Cooked and used Impossible sausage, (in a tube), totally turned out gooey and delish! This reminded me a bit of the baked white bean/marinara kale dish with Mozzarella/Parmesan, recipe you have which is one of my staples! The gnocchi added a different element and I think when pressed for time I will use the Marinara or Arrabiata sauces, when needed. Thank you for the wonderful recipe!

The whole family gobbled it down. Loved it. So easy!

Great recipe! My friends loved it and it was so easy

Incredibly tasty and for a one-pot meal it’s a very nice payoff for the effort (which was very little if you buy precooked sausage and premade gnocchi).  I did get the nicer quality canned tomatoes (San Marzano) and chopped fresh garlic (vs pre-minced).  Made a difference!  My husband agreed it’s a new favorite recipe.

Très delicieux! This was so great! I will say that with the salt in the canned tomatoes and gnocchi (I think?) the recipe didn't need any more. Also, can't have too much kale!

I made this and we loved it! Full of delicious Italian flavors, we had it with a nice salad on the side. I’ll definitely be making this again and again. Thank you!

Ten out of ten! My husband won’t quit talking about how good this meal was, and is asking when I can make it again. Thanks for the easy and delish recipe.

INSANELY tasty but so easy to make. Next-level weeknight food for sure!

Very tasty, mushrooms were a great addition.

I’ve made this so many times and it’s become a family favorite!

Used an Italian „Tuscan“ seasoning blend with the garlic, since I didn’t have chili flakes or fennel. Also only had shredded mozzarella on hand but it was still great! We’ll have this again.

Another wonderful recipe! I was asked once again to make sure I save this one. Very tasty! Thank you and keep them coming.

This is excellent! The fennel makes the dish. Thank you!!!

Have made this several times. So easy, but delicious?
