In Good FlavorPan seared Italian sausage chunks, tender gnocchi, and nutrition packed kale make this stew hearty and comforting. With less than 30 minutes cook time, it is perfect for a weeknight family meal.
One thing that is not complicated is this stew. It is a delicious and comforting meal that can easily be put together after a long day. I take advantage of a couple of convenience items to make this stew a breeze to prepare. I love packaged gnocchi. It’s a wonderful thing! It cooks literally in three minutes, perfect for a quick meal. I also like to take the lazy way out with the kale. Fresh chopped packaged kale is a time server. It might cost a little more than chopping my own, but for convenience and speediness needed during the weeknight, it is so worth it.

I'm sold just by the word "quick". I need all of the quick, hearty meals this winter! Gnocchi and sausage…yum!!
I like the my meals to be quick year round and I don't have 3 little ones to chase after. I'm glad this one fits into your busy daily routine, Katherine! Happy New Year!!
Oooh, that looks good! I really need to try out packaged gnocchi and see how I feel about them because being able to make recipes like this with no fuss would be great.
And, happy new year to you! I hope it is less stressful than last year. 🙂
This really does look like a winner, comforting and delicious.
You've got to give them a try, Annemarie! You can't beat packaged gnocchi for convenience and simplicity. I hope the new year brings us much needed relief. Happy New Year to you! I hope 2019 brings you good health and good times!
Thank you Karen! This is exactly the kind of food I crave during winter!
I made my own gnocchi over winter break and it was only marginally successful 🙁 . I would also be buying it for this beautiful stew! Perfect for winter!
Ohhhh! I'm sorry to hear that, Inger. That is disappointing. I hope you will have better results if you ever decide to try it again. And thanks! This stew is quite comforting.
Happy New Year,Thao. I do hope that 2019 will be better for you and your family. This dish looks really delicious, I like packaged gnocchi too, one of the few ready-made foods I buy. And I have to admit I've never managed to make decent homemade gnocchi, I haven't found that perfect recipe, something is always missing.
Yes, this year need to be better! I have never made my own gnocchi, and with packaged ones that are so tasty, there was little need for me to make my own. Funny how the homemade ones you tried didn't measure up. I hope you'll find the perfect recipe one day!
My husband doesn't eat pork. Would chicken or beef be good in this stew??
Hi Tameika. It would work but you might need to add just a little more seasoning. For the beef version, switch to beef broth. Hope you'll give it a try!!
