So I haven’t made a gnocchi recipe in a really long time and I’m pretty sure I’ve only made the actual gnocchi itself 2 or 3 times. One of the biggest advantages that I love about making gnocchi is that it cooks very quickly, like 2 minutes and presto. Plus, if you use store-bought gnocchi then all you’ve got to make is just the sauce.
Of course homemade from scratch is always going to be better and I completely recommend you try it sometime. I’m not gonna lie though, its kind of nice to short-cut things and use store-bought every now and then. In fact, it makes this a 30-minute meal when you do that, aren’t those the best kind at the end of a long day or a hard week?
Also, this is a perfect week night meal because you just simmer everything together until you’ve got a simple, yet delicious meal that I think your whole family will enjoy! Total win win situation right here.

Ingredients
1 pound uncooked gnocchi pasta check to make sure it's gluten free if needed
3 cups vegetable broth
1 head roasted garlic peeled and minced
3 cups broccoli florets
3 cups portabello mushrooms sliced
2 teaspoons lemon juice
