INGREDIENTS
1 cup Cauliflower Gnocchi
4 oz Grilled Chicken Breast
1 medium Red Bell Pepper
0.5 cup Cherry Tomatoes
0.5 medium Zucchini
1 serving Fresh Basil Pesto (blend of fresh basil, pine nuts, olive oil, garlic, and nutritional yeast)
Additional: 1 tsp Olive Oil, 1 tbsp Pine Nuts, 1 tbsp Nutritional Yeast, 1 Garlic Clove, 1 cup Fresh Basil Leaves
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 425°F. Toss sliced red bell pepper, zucchini, and cherry tomatoes with a drizzle of olive oil, salt, and pepper on a baking sheet.
Roast the vegetables for 20-25 minutes until tender and lightly caramelized.
Meanwhile, grill the seasoned chicken breast until fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F) and then slice it.
In a separate pan, sauté the cauliflower gnocchi on medium heat until edges turn golden, about 5-7 minutes.
Prepare the fresh basil pesto by blending basil leaves, pine nuts, garlic, nutritional yeast, olive oil, and a pinch of salt until smooth.
Combine the roasted vegetables with the sautéed gnocchi and drizzle the pesto over the top.
Gently toss to integrate all flavors, and garnish with additional fresh basil if desired.
Plate the dish with the sliced grilled chicken breast on the side and enjoy your balanced, protein-rich meal.
