The dish offers a perfect balance of creaminess, herbaceous freshness, and a subtle, nutty flavor that elevates every bite.
INGREDIENTS
1/2 cup Low-Fat Ricotta Cheese
1/2 cup Whole Wheat Flour
1 Egg
1 Egg White
1 cup cooked Fresh Spinach
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 tbsp Fresh Mixed Herbs (Basil & Parsley)
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
In a medium bowl, combine the low-fat ricotta cheese, whole wheat flour, egg, and egg white. Lightly season with salt and pepper.
Mix the ingredients until a soft dough forms. If the dough is too sticky, add a little extra flour.
Lightly dust a work surface with flour and gently roll the dough into a log approximately 1-inch in diameter. Slice into 1-inch pieces to form gnocchi.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the gnocchi in batches and cook until they float to the top, about 2-3 minutes. Remove them with a slotted spoon and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the cooked spinach and gently sauté for 1-2 minutes. Stir in the fresh mixed herbs and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
Gently toss the cooked gnocchi into the skillet, allowing them to absorb the flavors of the greens and herbs. Serve immediately while warm.
