sweet potato gnocchi in blue cheese sauce


I put this dish together last minute on Monday night, and it turned out to be a fabulous dinner to start the week off. I bought these gnocchi at a favorite shop that offers great pre-made italian dinners. You simply cook them from frozen and they're done when they float to the top. Gnocchi can sometimes be heavy so I knew I wanted a light sauce. I ran across the street to pick up some rich and creamy blue cheese and simply melted it with garlic, butter and olive oil and stirred in some fresh basil and lemon juice at the last minute. The flavors of this dish were so delicious and rich and so decadent for a Monday night homemade dinner!
