About Gnocchi with pesto and parmesan
Gnocchi with pesto and Parmesan is a classic dish rooted in Italian cuisine. Gnocchi, soft dumplings typically made from potato, flour, and egg, provide a comforting base for the vibrant pesto, a flavorful sauce crafted from fresh basil, pine nuts, olive oil, garlic, and Parmesan cheese. The dish is completed with a sprinkle of grated Parmesan, enhancing its rich, nutty profile. Gnocchi delivers energy through carbohydrates, while the pesto offers heart-healthy fats from olive oil and antioxidants from basil. Parmesan adds protein and calcium but is high in sodium, so moderation is key. Though indulgent, the freshness of the pesto highlights clean, wholesome ingredients. This dish serves as a satisfying option, but considering its calorie density and fat content, balance it with a side of vegetables or lean protein to support a well-rounded meal.
