Ingredients
  

  • 1 16-ounce bag frozen cauliflower florets (about 5 cups)
  • 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking)
  • Your favorite sauce (marinara, pesto, etc.)
  • Optional: Fresh basil for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Boil frozen cauliflower florets in water for 5-8 minutes until tender. Drain well.
  • Cool cauliflower slightly, then squeeze out as much excess water as possible using a clean towel.
  • Pulse cauliflower in a food processor until crumbly. Add flour and salt, pulse until a soft, sticky dough forms.
  • On a floured surface, cut dough into 4 sections. Roll each into a rope, then cut into small gnocchi pieces.
  • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook gnocchi in batches until golden brown for 2-3 minutes per side.
  • Add your favorite sauce to the pan with the gnocchi. Toss gently to combine and heat through. Serve immediately!
