About Gnocchi with tomato sauce and cheese
Gnocchi with Tomato Sauce and Cheese is a comforting classic from Italian cuisine. This dish features tender potato-based dumplings, coated in a vibrant tomato sauce made with ripe tomatoes, garlic, and herbs, offering a rich source of vitamins A and C, as well as antioxidants like lycopene. Finished with a generous sprinkle of shredded cheese—commonly mozzarella or Parmesan—it adds protein and calcium, essential for bone health. Gnocchi is primarily made from potatoes, providing starchy carbohydrates for energy, though its refined nature means it lacks fiber. The cheese, while flavorful, contributes saturated fats, so portion control is key. The dish can be balanced by incorporating vegetables such as spinach or zucchini into the sauce to increase fiber and nutrients. Ideal for a flavorful meal, this dish is filling yet indulgent, combining the heartiness of gnocchi with the comforting tang of tomato and creamy richness of cheese.
