I think the sausages look and taste better if browned first before putting in the oven.
Snowy stay home kinda night tonight. Made exactly according to recipe. Wonderful, easy peasy dinner with great flavor. Gnocchi cooked perfectly as directed contrary to concerns raised by others. Melissa would never lead us wrong. Perfect dinner for a cold snowy night!
Haven't made this yet, but have made the other Crispy Gnocchi and Sausage recipe and it's awesome. That one cooks 20-25 minutes at 425 and the gnocchi are perfect. I think 40 minutes would turn them into dust. Watch it if you try this recipe! (Maybe add gnocchi half way through?)
Made this almost exactly as is - delicious and so easy. Gnocchi came out perfectly. My sausages were already cooked, so sliced them and stirred into the sheet pan mixture for the last 15 minutes of cooking. Don't skip the parmesan and fresh basil when serving. Might be good served with a squeeze of lemon too.
If everyone in our family of four likes a dish it is called a 4 four meal — this received a rare 4 forks! Me, the cook because it is so easy. And everyone one else because they liked it a lot. I would add one more bell pepper to up the veggie content. Even the 2 folks who are lukewarm on tomatoes didn’t even mention them. Took advice from other commentators and ran it on convection mode for half the time. I also flipped the sausages.
Incredibly good! 40 minutes worked for me.
