Gnocchi, Cauliflower and Prosciutto Sheet Pan Dinner

Sheet pan dinner! I mean, what even is this sheet? Ha! Oh.

I need more sheet pan situations in my life. It’s like, the ultimate life hack. You violently toss a bunch of sheet on a sheet and say sheet as much as possible. Such good sheet!

And this one? Insanity. Cauliflower, gnocchi, red onion and diced prosciutto. Hearty, comforting, delicious. Let’s do it.

If you buy a bag of cauliflower florets, good on you. Love it. Get it and open it and toss it out. If you can’t find that, a big head of cauli all broken into florets is what you’re looking for.

We’ll combine it with thick slices of red onion, a bag of dried gnocchi, a good pinch of dried Italian seasoning, lots of oil and a big pinch of salt. Tossy toss.

Hiiiiiiiya. Freshly chopped parmesan on top, maybe another drizzle of olive oil and she’s great.

Lemon juice to wake it up is never a bad idea. Also parmesan would make it stellar.

Crushed red pepper! Go nuts, make it yours.

Thing is, the cauliflower is roasted and beautifully tender. The gnocchi is toothy and even crunchy in places. The red onion is deep with aromatic essence. The prosciutto is crispy, rich and salty. Unbelievably simple for all that flavor, I tell you.

Anything roasted is glorious to me. And I mean, you saw how we lit-rally just tossed and roasted, right? This sheet is criminal!

(I’ll stop.)

You better make this sheet. (I tried to stop.)
