Alfredo Sausage and Potato Gnocchi Bake
This Alfredo Sausage and Potato Gnocchi Bake combines tender gnocchi with sliced cooked Italian sausage, all smothered in a creamy sauce made from butter, heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, and a touch of nutmeg. The dish is baked until heated through and can be quickly browned under the broiler for a lightly crisp topping. It's a hearty and indulgent casserole blending the pillowy texture of gnocchi with rich, cheesy flavors and savory sausage.
