SLOW COOKER CREAMY GNOCCHI SAUSAGE KALE SOUP

Steps:

• Place the browned sausage, onion, carrots, celery, garlic, broth, Italian seasoning, Vegeta (or bouillon), onion powder, garlic powder, salt, pepper in a crockpot or slow cooker. Cover and cook on high for 4-5 hours or low for 6-8 hours.
• Add the evaporated milk (or half and half or cream), milk/cornstarch mixture and gnocchi. Stir and replace cover. Cook another 30 minutes until the soup has thickened and the gnocchi has softened.
• Add in the chopped kale (or spinach), cover for an extra 5 minutes or until just beginning to wilt.

SAUSAGE, KALE & GNOCCHI ONE-POT

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large high-sided frying pan over a medium heat. Squeeze the sausages straight from their skins into the pan, then use the back of a wooden spoon to break the meat up. Sprinkle in the chilli flakes and fennel seeds, if using, then fry until the sausagemeat is crisp around the edges. Remove from the pan with a slotted spoon.
• Tip the gnocchi into the pan, fry for a minute or so, then pour in the chicken stock. Once bubbling, cover the pan with a lid and cook for 3 mins, then stir in the kale. Cook for 2 mins more or until the gnocchi is tender and the kale has wilted. Stir in the parmesan, then season with black pepper and scatter the crisp sausagemeat over the top.

CHEESY SAUSAGE ONE-POT GNOCCHI

Steps:

• Heat a large pot over medium heat. Brown the sausage in larger chunks, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and reserve. Drizzle in the olive oil, then add the chile flakes, garlic and shallot. Give the pan a stir, then add the corn, zucchini and summer squash and cook to soften, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the tomato paste and a big pinch of salt and pepper. Stir to coat. Deglaze with the chicken stock, scraping the pan. Stir in the tomato sauce and pesto, then bring to a boil. Add the gnocchi, kale and reserved sausage, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cook, stirring frequently, until the gnocchi are tender and the sauce has thickened, 6 to 7 minutes. Stir in the mascarpone and taste. Adjust the seasoning as needed. Serve, garnished with grated Parmesan and basil.
