This recipe was inspired by a recipe by Food to Love. Its a go to dinner for me on a work night, and the perfect leftover for lunch the next day. 

Ingredients:

• 500g packet gnocchi

• 2 tbsp olive oil

• 50 butter

• 2 cloves garlic, crushed

• 1/2 cup natural flaked almonds

• 1 bunch of broccolini

• 1 tsp of chill flakes (optional)

• 2 zucchinis, thinly sliced

• 1 cup mint leaves, roughly chopped

• 1 lemon, zest grated, juice squeezed

Method:

1. In a large saucepan of boiling salted water, cook gnocchi following packet instructions. Drain well, reserving ¼ cup cooking liquid.

2. In a large frying pan, heat oil and butter on medium. Sauté garlic, almonds, broccolini and zucchini for 2-3 mins.

3. Toss with gnocchi and reserved cooking liquid. Stir in mint and lemon. Serve with grated vegetarian parmesan and extra mint.

4. Enjoy :)
