I made this healthy broccoli gnocchi and it was gone in SECONDS.

Hey Reader!

I hope you're having a great week. But, if you're like me: you cannot wait for the weekend to begin! If you're on my IG Stories, you know that I spent last weekend developing a recipe for Strawberry Cake. Don't get too excited--there were a couple of BIG wrinkles with my first go-round, so that isn't quite ready yet. Still, in order to cheer me up, I made a really quick and easy gnocchi recipe, using store-bought gnocchi (no shame here!).

We are still on the broccoli theme, though. And if you tried last week's Creamy Broccoli Soup, about 75% of the recipe will sound quite familiar to you! But that's why this week's hero recipe--Creamy Broccoli Gnocchi--is so brilliant: it uses up the entire broccoli and you can easily pivot mid-way and turn it into soup!

If neither gnocchi nor broccoli are your thing, I gotchu: we have plenty of other carbo-loaded pastas that will hit you in the feels (and in the tummy) when you need a pick-me-up!

This Week's Musings:

The Everyday Friend.

"This is ... the friend who walks into your place unannounced, opens your fridge, grabs the last vegan yogurt, and washes the spoon he used, all before you’ve even noticed he’s there. This is the friend who gets along with you, your spouse, your kids, your dog, your sister, your estranged mother, even your mailman, because that’s how effortlessly they’ve inveigled their way into your ecosphere.... [I]’ve never, in my entire life, had an 'everyday friend.' Have I been missing out on a potentially life-altering relationship? One that would 'transform [my] quality of life'?"

And that brings this week's Recipe Roundup: Comfort Edition to a close. Let me know if you try any of these recipes! Until next week, have a wonderful day!

Wishing you all the best,
