Ground Beef Gnocchi

Usually when I use gnocchi, I use it in a soup. However, today I have a delicious ground beef gnocchi dish where the gnocchi and ground beef are the base of the dish. It makes a great summer meal too since it is all made on the stove top. No hot oven needed here.
This meal is all made in one skillet. You brown the ground beef along with some onion. Next, you add in some garlic, italian seasoning, canned diced tomatoes, chicken broth, whipping cream and the uncooked gnocchi. Then it all simmers together for about 5 minutes covered.
At this point, you uncover the dish and allow it to continue to cook until the gnocchi is fully cooked and your sauce is thickened. Last, you add in some freshly grated parmesan, salt, and pepper. Now, it’s time to enjoy! Pair it with a fresh green salad and you are set for an amazing meal.
