Ingredients
- 1 batch Kale Basil Pesto (see below)
- 1 pound dry gnocchi (I used DeLallo Mini Potato Gnocchi, or you can use Gluten-Free Gnocchi)
- 1 pound chicken sausage (I used a spicy Italian variety)
- 1 Tablespoon olive oil
- 1 pound brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
- grated Parmesan cheese, for topping
- 2 cups packed chopped kale leaves, stems removed
- 1 cup packed basil leaves
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts, toasted
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 4 cloves garlic
- 1/2 cup olive oil
Steps
-
Prepare Kale Basil Pesto according to instructions below.
-
Cook the gnocchi in a large stockpot of salted boiling water according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
-
While the gnocchi is cooking, cook the chicken sausage in a saute pan according to package instructions. Once it has finished cooking, transfer the sausage to a separate plate and slice it on the diagonal into bite-sized pieces.
-
In the same saute pan, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add Brussels sprouts and saute for 5-6 minutes, stirring and flipping occasionally, until it is cooked through and begins to brown. Remove from heat.
-
Combine gnocchi, Brussels sprouts and Kale Basil Pesto in the stock pot, and toss until combined. Serve warm, garnished with extra Parmesan cheese if desired.
-
Add kale, basil, walnuts, Parmesan, salt and garlic to a food processor, and pulse until combined. Drizzle in the olive oil, while still pulsing the food processor, until the pesto is smooth. Serve.
