Garlic and Rosemary Gnocchi
This was an invention that I made during a rainy day in the camper van in Sarnen, Switzerland. Nothing in the fridge and no chance of going to a Swiss supermarket where it is 15 swiss pounds for 2 chicken breasts! I had luckily picked up a packet of these small gnocchi bites at our …
