Sweet Potato Gnocchi

If you’re familiar with gnocchi, you know that the pillowy bites of potato dough are made with conventional flour and eggs. Not to mention topped with buttery, cream-based sauces. However, this delicious Sweet Potato Gnocchi makes the dreamy, Italian dish perfect for anyone following The Myers Way®.

In my Sweet Potato Gnocchi, I use cassava flour instead of regular, bleached flour. It’s minimally processed without toxic chemicals and it’s an energy-rich option for those of you who like to stay active.

To add a ton of nutritious benefits, I replaced potatoes with orange sweet potatoes. Sweet potato is high in fiber, vitamins, and minerals which will promote optimal gut health and immune function. With their beautiful, orange color, they’re packed with beta-carotene and antioxidants to fight free radicals and support your vision.

To take this AIP pasta to the next level, Sweet Potato Gnocchi is a hearty base for a fantastic sauce. You can try the Nomato Sauce from The Autoimmune Solution Cookbook, or a flavorful kale pesto. This nutrient-dense plate of great-tasting sweet potato clouds is just what you need to kick your health into high-gear!
