Servings: persons

3 large potatoes
3 cups reduced-fat ricotta cheese
1/4 cup grated Romano cheese
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon kosher salt
6 eggs
4-1/2 cups cake flour
4 quarts water
2-2/3 cups cubed peeled butternut squash
1/3 cup thinly sliced fresh basil leaves
1/3 cup water
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons olive oil
2 garlic cloves, peeled and thinly sliced
1-1/4 teaspoons kosher salt
3/4 teaspoon pepper
1-1/3 cups heavy whipping cream
2/3 cup crumbled Gorgonzola cheese
1-1/2 pounds fresh spinach, coarsely chopped

1
Scrub and pierce potatoes. Bake at 400u00b0 for 50-55 minutes or until tender. Peel potatoes; press through a potato ricer or strainer into a large bowl. Cool slightly.
2
Add ricotta and Romano cheeses, oil and salt to potato pulp; beat on low speed until smooth. Beat in eggs, one at a time. Add flour; mix well. On a lightly floured surface, knead 10-12 times, forming a soft dough.
3
Divide dough into 16 portions. On a floured surface, roll each portion into a 1/2-in.-thick rope; cut into 3/4-in. pieces. Press and roll each piece with a lightly floured fork.
4
In a Dutch oven, bring water to a boil. Cook gnocchi in batches until they float, 30-60 seconds. Remove with a slotted spoon and keep warm.
5
In a large saucepan, combine the squash, basil, water, oil, garlic, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Cover and cook until squash is tender, 4-6 minutes.
6
Stir in cream and Gorgonzola. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 2 minutes. Add spinach; cook until spinach is wilted. Serve with gnocchi.
