Notes
- Use a large, rimmed baking sheet so that all the ingredients have enough space to roast evenly. Overcrowding the pan can lead to steaming, making soggy veggies, and the gnocchi will not be crispy.
- Line your sheet pan with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup. This will prevent the gnocchi and tomatoes from sticking and make washing up super easy.
- Spread the gnocchi and tomatoes in a single, even layer on the sheet pan. This helps everything to cook evenly.
- Preheat your oven before putting the sheet pan in. This helps the gnocchi and tomatoes start roasting immediately, giving them that perfect crispy texture.
- When you season the gnocchi and tomatoes with olive oil, salt, and pepper, make sure to toss them well so everything is evenly coated.
- After adding the pesto, spinach, and cheese, let the dish rest for a few minutes. This allows the flavors to combine together.
- Store - Any leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. To prevent the gnocchi from becoming too soft, reheat it in the oven or on the stovetop rather than the microwave for the best texture.
