Vegan Gnocchi with Sage Brown Butter Sauce

Ingredients

• 16 oz gnocchi
• 1 cup vegan butter
• 12 leaves fresh sage leaves
• 3 cloves garlic
• 1 cup nutritional yeast
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 cup chopped walnuts
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley

Instructions

1. 1

   Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat.

2. 2

   Add the gnocchi to the boiling water and cook according to package instructions, usually about 2-3 minutes, or until they float to the surface. Drain and set aside.

3. 3

   In a large skillet, melt the vegan butter over medium heat. Allow it to cook for about 2-3 minutes until it starts to bubble and turn a light golden color.

4. 4

   Add the fresh sage leaves to the skillet and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until they become crispy and fragrant.

5. 5

   Mince the garlic cloves and add them to the skillet. Sauté for about 1 minute until the garlic is fragrant but not burnt.

6. 6

   Add the cooked gnocchi to the skillet and gently toss to coat them in the sage brown butter sauce. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the gnocchi to soak up the flavors.

7. 7

   Stir in the nutritional yeast, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Mix well to combine all the ingredients.

8. 8

   Serve the gnocchi hot, garnished with chopped walnuts and fresh parsley.
