Pumpkin Gnocchi with Sage and Crispy Garlic Breadcrumbs



Look at me, being all seasonal! I was going to call this Pumpkin Gnocchi with Pumpkin Sauce and Extra Pumpkin, but I thought that might be overdoing it a little. If your only previous experience with pumpkin anything is in latte or lantern form, prepare to have your mind blown. But even if you’re a regular pumpkin eater, this gnocchi recipe is damn awesome.

Shhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Shhh. You had me at gnocchi.
