Kale Gnocchi


1 Box Potato Gnocchi ( I buy mine from Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, Sprouts. I just make sure I understand the ingredients).
1 Head of Broccoli cut
1 Zucchini Cut
1 Handful of Spinach
12 Raw Cashews for topping, need more for sauce
Couple dashes of EVOO
Food Processor, 2 pans, strainer

*For Dr. Fuhrman's Creamed Kale Sauce
2# raw Kale (I just did one bunch and added about 2-3 handfuls of spinach).
½ cup raw cashew nuts
½ cup soy milk ( I used my Almond milk)
2 tablespoons onion flakes
*I added a few dashes of Garlic pepper and nutmeg (Nutmeg should be added to any dark leafy green. It brings out the flavor).
Remove the thick bottom of the stems from the kale and place the leaves in a large pot with steamer. Steam 10-20 minutes, until soft. Remove from steamer, drain and keep draining the excess water.
Add all ingredients to food processor and mix until creamy.
  1. Place Broccoli, Zucchini and spinach in a sauce pan with a few dashes of EVOO. Just to soften and cook them
  2. Cook Gnocchi as directed.
  3. Drain Gnocchi
  4. Combine Gnocchi, veggies and some of the Creamy Kale sauce. Stir all together and decide if you need more sauce or not.
  5. I used a 1C measure to scoop out. I think I did 3 per person, because its not all Gnocchi, there is also the veggies.
  6. I then added about 12 Raw Cashews on top.
Enjoy!
