Shrimp & Gnocchi

I love Trader Joe’s … don’t you? You will see me mention them a lot because I simply love their ingredients! I’m sort of glad they are not very close to me or I would be in trouble! I am happy to give you suggestions on where you can find the ingredients locally. This made my house smell like garlicy goodness. Best part is… it takes less than 30 minutes to prepare and cook !

Chop and measure everything and have it ready to go! It’s called Mise en Place “putting in place or everything in place”

Look at how delicious and beautiful this dinner is. One pot meal… simple, quick and freaking delicious!
