How To Store Leftover Sheet Pan Gnocchi With Roasted Vegetables

Store any leftover gnocchi and veggies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. 

Where Is Gnocchi In The Grocery Store And Which Should I Use?

You will be able to find at least one brand of gnocchi either in the pasta aisle or in the refrigerated pasta section – and probably both. Most grocery stores also have frozen gnocchi in the freezer aisles, typically with the frozen ravioli. 

You can use any of the various types of gnocchi for this easy dinner recipe, so anything from potato gnocchi to cauliflower gnocchi to ricotta gnocchi will work. 

Regardless of the store-bought gnocchi you get, by the time you are ready to put them on the sheet pan, the dumpling texture should be soft.

That means that if you have shelf-stable gnocchi or frozen gnocchi, you may need to prepare your dumplings per the instructions on the package of gnocchi before adding them to the rest of the ingredients.

Is There Anything Else I Can Add To This Sheet-Pan Gnocchi?

Yes! This easy meal is already delicious just as it is, but if you want to change it up for next time, there are a slew of veggies you could add.

Think regular bell peppers, small chunks of sweet potatoes, brussels sprouts, baby spinach, a small red onion, cherry tomatoes, or grape tomatoes.

In addition to the fresh vegetables, you could add red pepper flakes or swap out the dried spices for fresh basil leaves and fresh thyme leaves. The measurement amounts will be different, so you’ll want to do some research before adding them!

  1. We are all about sheet pan meals over here so this is perfect. Your recipe sounds delicious and it’ll definitely be landing on our dinner table soon! Pinned Thanks for the recipe!

    1. Not a dumb question at all! It will depend on the brand you use. If it’s frozen, you’ll likely want to cook it first. I used a refrigerated brand, so I cut open the package and included it as it was. Everything then cooked together. πŸ™‚

  2. Made this for dinner this evening, it was absolutely delicious. I used some fresh spaetzle and substituted cheddar cheese for the Romano. I’ll definitely be making this again, thank you!

  3. I am so excited to make this recipe this week! The gnocchi Where we live is not refrigerated or frozen it’s in the pasta aisle. Will it need to be cooked before putting it on the sheet pan?
