This gnocchi bake is packed with rich cheese and tender greens, striking just the right balance between decadence and healthiness. Roasting the gnocchi in olive oil creates a crisp crust with a tender soft filling. Squeeze the spinach as dry as possible to keep the gnocchi’s texture intact once all the ingredients are mixed together.
