About Gnocchi pink sauce

Gnocchi Pink Sauce is a comforting Italian-inspired dish combining soft, pillowy potato dumplings with a creamy, tomato-based sauce. The pink sauce is typically made from a blend of tomatoes, heavy cream, butter, and Parmesan cheese, creating its signature color and rich flavor. Some variations may include garlic, onion, or fresh herbs for added depth. While this dish offers a hearty dose of carbohydrates from the gnocchi, it can be high in fat and calories due to the cream and cheese content. For a healthier version, consider swapping heavy cream for lighter alternatives, using whole-grain gnocchi, or adding vegetables like spinach or zucchini for extra nutrients. Originating in Italy and beloved worldwide, Gnocchi Pink Sauce is often enjoyed as a decadent treat and pairs beautifully with a fresh salad or lean protein to balance the meal.
