Gnocchi With Beetroot
Have you ever had beetroot gnocchi? If not, now is the time to try it! Red beetroot is an excellent source of fiber, potassium, and vitamin C. The vegetable is also low-calorie, with only 43 calories per 100 grams. Red beetroot is also low in carbohydrates and a very low glycemic load, meaning that eating the vegetable doesn’t greatly alter your glycemic levels.
Potato Gnocchi
Potato gnocchi is a classic Italian meal, often passed down from generations. Mamma Emma’s potato gnocchi is the same flavor as their Italian grandmother’s recipe and are hand-made with the same velvety taste of gnocchi that we know and love!
