Okey-Gnocchi With Pancetta & Peas

Another one from Cooking With All Things Trader Joes...I know...I need to get some recipes from another cookbook!!

1 (16 oz) bag frozen Gnocchi Alla Gorgonzola
2oz Pancetta mini-cubes, about 1/2 the package, or 1/2 cup chopped ham (oops...I used the whole package of Pancetta and it tasted great!)
1/2 cup frozen peas or 1 cup frozen chopped spinach (I used frozen peas)
1 Tbsp chopped fresh basil or 1 cube frozen Chopped Basil (I used 1 cube frozen chopped basil - I love those things!)
  • Cook pancetta over medium-high heat until browned. Place on a paper towel to drain grease.
  • Pour entire package of gnocchi in a medium saucepan (I used the same pan I cooked the pancetta in - who wants to clean 2 pans/pots?!?!) and cook for 5 minutes until cheese is almost melted. Add pancetta and frozen peas; continue cooking for 3 minutes longer.
  • Stir in basil
This was the easiest and yummiest dish I've made so far! This one will definately be made again!
