We’ve been slapped silly with a berserk cold front here in Minnesota.

We’re not talking Oh, I could use a cute scarf cold.

We’re talking -34F why do I live here cold. #evilwindchill

I realize some of you luckies can’t even fathom that kind of crazy. That was me six years ago. My sunny So. Cal. self had never seen a working snowplow . It’s safe to say we’ve become much hardier, not necessarily by choice.

However, it’s totally by choice that I’ve been dishing up one-pot dishes to keep us warm…

Like this One Pot Gnocchi with Spinach and Chicken.

When the weather gives you lemons, make lemonade. Or something like that. When you live in a place like this, everything is weather related.

This ‘aint lemonade, but it sure is a bit of sunshine on a overcast day

We were inspired by food network and all these creamy looking pastas everywhere. We decided to turn a package of fresh potato gnocchi into an easy, scrumptious meal in one. We’re loving all the one pot meals, especially when they include fluffy gnocchi.

We start off by making a creamy sauce in the skillet, comprised mainly of milk and chicken broth. A bit of butter and seasonings elevate it to Yumalicious World.

To keep the recipe weeknight friendly, we rely on shredded rotisserie chicken – my favorite deli item ever. Can we count the ways rotisserie chicken skillfully morphs into fresh new dishes? It’s akin to a blank slate.

Sprinkle in the mushrooms, gnocchi, and spinach.

It’s getting better with every bite.

Top it all off with freshly grated parmesan cheese, and finish it off in the oven for a beautiful golden brown topping.

This One Pan Gnocchi with Spinach and Chicken is super easy for any weeknight dinner, yet tasty and impressive enough to serve your friends on the weekend.

Enjoy!
