Gnocchi has always been one of my favorite pasta dishes because it is made with my favorite ingredient, potatoes, and I absolutely love pesto cause of its strong flavor. So when I saw this I knew I had to get it! The roasted vegetables I thought would be a little weird, but they were honestly the best part of this dish!
The gnocchi are like little pillows sitting in your dish. Light, airy, and incredibly flavorful. They are perfectly salted and creamy inside. The pesto sauce was one of the best I have ever tasted. It was such a bright green color and wasn't too garlicky. You could taste every bit of fresh basil put in and the high grade olive oil used. The perfect amount of sauce was used so it wasn't swimming in a pool of sauce. Now to the vegetables. It came with plump mushrooms, broccolini, roasted eggplant, and cherry tomatoes. The mushrooms were probably my favorite because they were so meaty and tender. The broccolini was perfectly cooked and added an extra layer of flavor to the entire dish. I usually am not a fan of eggplant, but this eggplant was amazing. It had a sort of nutty, roasted flavor that I have never tasted before. Since I hate tomatoes, I was not willing to give them a try, but they looked beautiful!
This dish was everything you could want in a pasta dish and more!
