Baked Gnocchi with Ground Turkey and Marinara Sauce image

This baked casserole resembles a loaded baked potato, although, instead of potato, I used gnocchi and topped it with ground turkey, pasta sauce, and cheese.

Time 45m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 (16 ounce) package potato gnocchi
1 pound ground turkey
1 (28 ounce) jar marinara sauce
2 cups shredded Cheddar cheese
1 cup sour cream

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook gnocchi in the boiling water until they float to the top, 2 to 4 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground turkey in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, about 5 minutes, making sure not to overcook as meat will continue to brown in the oven. Stir in marinara sauce; remove from heat.
  • Transfer cooked gnocchi to a 9-inch square baking dish using a slotted spoon. Top with meat sauce. Sprinkle Cheddar cheese on top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until cheese begins to brown, 25 to 35 minutes. Serve with sour cream on the side.
