Zucchini Ricotta Gnocchi with Sage Brown Butter Sauce!!! Try this homemade Zucchini Ricotta Gnocchi! It’s so good!
One of the great, truly rewarding things about blogging is connecting with other people. The readers, fellow bloggers, foodies, other home cooks. It’s wonderful to connect with people who share the same passion: cooking and food.
Today, I’m guest posting over at Laura’s Mess. Laura is my friend over in Perth, Australia. Her writing is lovely, her photography gorgeous and her recipes, truly amazing. If you haven’t visited her blog, you absolutely need to. You’ll leave feeling inspired. For sure. This is one of my favorite recipes from Laura and this is one of my favorite posts from her. So beautiful and touching.
Laura is currently taking the vacation of a lifetime. In July, she was in Paris, then Sweden where she made these fabulous Swedish Cinnamon Buns. Then on to big, beautiful Berlin and then to England. And she’s still going. . I told you this was the vacation of a lifetime, right?!
She is currently in Scotland, then will be road tripping for the next three weeks, then back in England, and then London before heading back home. Who wants to be her right now? Well, as Laura is traveling, I have the great pleasure of guest posting for her today.
Fall is upon us and I’m turning to filling, comforting food today. I made gnocchi! I took the skills from my one pasta making class back in Seattle and went for it. I love the feeling of dough in my hands and shaping the gnocchi.
So, I hope you grab some zucchini and try this! It’s really not hard at all. I added some roasted tomatoes because we have so many from our garden. . I also love the added flavor and color it adds to this dish.
So, head on over to Laura’s beautiful blog and check out my post and this recipe. . and tomorrow morning, I’m on a jet plane heading over to Allentown, PA to attend Big Harvest Potluck!! I’m super excited and ready to be inspired, learn and re-connect with friends and meet some new ones! Have a great weekend everyone! If you want to follow along, you know I’ll be posting photos on Instagram.
Have a great weekend everyone. . and go check out my zucchini ricotta gnocchi recipe and leave Laura a comment!! Cheers!

Thanks for sharing your recipe over at the Mess today… it’s such a stunning combination of flavours, I cannot WAIT to try it when I get home!

September 25, 2014 at 12:12 pmHave a terrific time at BHP! Wish I could join you but I’m all conferenced out…LOL. I guess if I can’t be you or Laura traveling the world, I’ll have to drown myself in this amazing gnocchi. I think it’s been years since I’ve made any…and I have a feeling I need some more practice on shaping the little buggers!
