Gnocchi With Creamy Pesto And Green Beans

1. 1

   Bring pot of water to boil.

2. 2

   Add handful of green beans to pot of boiling water. Cook for about 4 minutes.

3. 3

   Remove green beans from pot with slotted pasta spoon and drain in colander. (This allows you to cook the gnocchi in the same pot of water. If you would rather cook them in fresh boiling water, do so.) Put green beans aside.

4. 4

   Add 1 cup of gnocchi to boiling water. Cook per directions on package. When done, drain into colander.

5. 5

   While gnocchi are still hot, toss in a medium sized pasta bowl with pesto and mascarpone. Cover evenly and well. Adjust amounts as needed for the type of sauce you want.

6. 6

   Add green beans to the gnocchi and pesto sauce and toss.

7. 7

   Top with fresh ground black pepper and shredded parmesan cheese.
