Gnocchi with Beans and Tomatoes

It's CSA season again. With a box of veggies to use up and a randomly picky toddler (it's Tuesday, nothing orange for me!) to feed, that means some creative cooking needs to happen. Sometimes creative equals disaster, or at least toddler feeding fail, and sometimes it makes everyone happy.

This is what happens when you have beautiful CSA tomatoes, no defrosted meat in the house, and a toddler asking for everything in the fresh pasta case at the store.

Gnocchi with Beans and Tomatoes
1 pound sweet potato gnocchi
2 Tablespoons olive oil
3 large garlic cloves, sliced thin
3 medium tomatoes, chopped
1/4 teaspoon salt
14 ounces cooked white beans (no salt added)
grated parmesan (optional)

Cook gnocchi in a large pot of boiling water until they float.

While gnocchi cook, heat olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add garlic, tomatoes, and salt. Simmer until softened. Add beans and heat through. Drain gnocchi and combine with tomato sauce. Serve with grated parmesan, if desired.
