GNOCCHI & TOMATO BAKE (WITH FREEZING INSTRUCTIONS)



Gnocchi & Tomato Bake (With Freezing Instructions) image

This sounds good for anybody looking for a quick and tasty meal. It is vegetarian too which is always great in my books. I originally found this recipe in the September 2008 copy of the BBC Good Food Magazine. The recipe states that the dish can be frozen for up to a month. It says to just defrost and bake in a medium oven for 20 - 30 minutes until piping hot.
