Had a dish similar to this in a local restaurant and decided to improvise. It is absolutely delicious, though not diet food. Great with fresh Italian rolls and a salad.

The gnocchi was a little bland, but the sauce was delicious. I would add more herbs and spices to the gnocchi next time.

This dish was a bit too cheesy for my taste, but it was still good. I think I would use less cheese next time.

This gnocchi dish was a hit with my family! The cheese, prosciutto, and basil came together perfectly, and the gnocchi was cooked to perfection. I will definitely be making this again.
