Ingredients
- 3 Tablespoons butter or olive oil
- 1 ½ cups yellow onion finely chopped
- 1 small shallot finely chopped
- 1 ¼ cups carrot finely sliced or diced
- 1 ¼ cups celery finely sliced or diced
- kosher salt to taste
- 5-6 cloves garlic pressed or minced
- 1 Tablespoon thyme chopped, fresh
- 1 Tablespoon Italian seasoning
- Pinch red pepper flakes
- black pepper to taste, freshly ground
- 4 cups vegetable stock
- 16 ounces gnocchi
- 2 cups kale chopped
- 1 cup coconut milk canned
- ½ lemon juiced
- ¼ cup parsley finely chopped, fresh
Instructions
- Melt butter (or heat oil) in a large stock pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Stir in yellow onion, shallot, carrot, and celery with a pinch of salt. Saute for 7-8 minutes until fragrant and tender, stirring occasionally.
- Stir in garlic, thyme, and Italian seasoning, along with a pinch of red pepper flakes and a little freshly ground black pepper. Add another pinch of salt, too. Saute for 1-2 minutes.
- Pour in vegetable stock and bring to a boil for about 5 minutes. Taste test and add another pinch of salt (the gnocchi will absorb a lot so you'll likely need more than you think!).
- Add gnocchi to boiling stock, noting the package cook time. Test at the provided time, usually around 4-5 minutes, noting you may need an extra minute. The gnocchi should be pillowy and tender. Stir in kale with about a minute left of the gnocchi time so it can wilt.
- Pour in coconut milk. Taste test, add the squeeze of lemon, then taste again to see if additional salt is needed. Stir in fresh parsley, or simply garnish with it instead. Enjoy!

Notes
- White Beans: add a can of white beans (I like cannellini) for extra heartiness.
