Рецепт Rustic Yellow Squash and Brie Cream Sauce Smothered Gnocchi
Rustic Yellow Squash and Brie Cream Sauce Smothered Gnocchi
Squash is a delicious and nutritious way to feed your family , and is gentle on the budget, especially if you grow your own. I came up with this sauce to utilize some freshly steamed squash I had on hand. I created a coarse and creamy sauce to compliment some potato gnocchi I purchased . The Brie lends a subtle yet amazingly creamy texture to the squash, which I blended, seeds and all , including all the nutrients and fiber, with my immersion blender. I used turmeric, which is a wonderful antioxidant and popular spice in Indian cooking for brightness and to add to the whole yellow squash effect. Parmesan cheese, milk and butter help round the sauce out and pairs well with pan seared chicken or pork!
