Directions
Gnocchi lasagna is a layerless twist on the classic dish. Fluffy potato gnocchi replaces the pasta layers, baked in all the rich, tamatoey, cheesiness you crave. It’s an effortless, one-pan meal that delivers all the lasagna flavors you love in every bite—no layering required! This recipe comes together super quick for a weeknight meal, and it’s all mixed in the same pan you bake it in!
This recipe works well with store-bought gnocchi, but if you can make it by hand it elevates it that much more. Either way it’s simple and delicious, so give it a shot! (Find my gnocchi recipe here)
