Food Review: Trader Joe's Sweet Potato Gnocchi with Butter & Sage
After seeing this in the freezer section for quite a while, I decided to finally throw it in the cart the other day. Last night was time to give it a try.
Here's the blurry nutritional info.
and the cooking instructions.
I decided to go saucepan route since I thought the microwave might make it mushy. Here it is fresh outta da bag.
I added 3 tbsp of water total and here's how it came together.
The finished product.
I made it with BBQ shrimp and green beans.
The verdict?
Holy schnikes!! It was absolutely wonderful! It had a nice subtle flavor and totally filling. I don't know that I'd really say I could identify it as sweet potato though but that doesn't matter. The Mr agreed we should get it again. I would suggest pairing it with something like shrimp with a punch of flavor because of how subtle the dish is on it's own.

Definitely good stuff! I always like the way you do shrimp but I honestly had no idea what to expect with the gnocchi and it was a huge surprise just how good it was. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI like gnocchi, I had no idea they had a sweet potato version.
ReplyDeleteThat's too funny you reviewed this today!
ReplyDeleteI have a bag of this in my freezer and I was planning to try it (finally) tonight!
The other gnocchi they have is pretty good too. the red sauce one.
