Saucy, colorful, fresh, and satisfying—this vegan gnocchi hits all the right notes. Store-bought whole wheat gnocchi is an excellent way to add variety to your menu and requires minimal cooking time. The pillowy, tender gnocchi melt in your mouth and absorb the rich flavors of fresh tomatoes, green garlic, and zucchini. Canned white beans add creaminess and extra body, while sun-dried tomatoes add pops of zingy flavor. Garnish with fresh basil and, if you like, nutritional yeast for a quick-cooking Italian-style dish perfect for busy weeknights or weekends when you want a tasty meal. Serve with a chunk of whole grain bread so you can scoop up every last bit.
