Notes
- This recipe serves four, perfect served with a side salad and garlic bread
- I use shop bought gnocchi
- I used a medium sized dish with a size of roughly 30x20cm
- If you prep it into the dish, it can freeze for 3+ months and then top with cheese and bake
- You can reheat this one but heating the oven to 160ºc and baking for 30 minutes
