Here is what you'll do...

1. Pre-heat oven to 425º and gather ingredients.

2. Cook ground meat in cast iron until browned.

3. Add garlic and italian seasoning. Stir it up and lower the heat.

4. Add gnocchi and red sauce to cast iron. Ensure gnocchi is completely covered by red sauce. (This will help it cook evenly)

5. Place mozzarella slices on top of dish.

6. Place in oven for 18 - 22 minutes. If able, broil for 1-2 minutes at the end. Watch carefully, don't over broil!

7. Remove from oven, let cool before digging in.

8. Enjoy with a green salad😊

*If you do not have a gluten allergy you can use regular gnocchi!

*If you don't have a cast iron pan, brown the meat in a regular pan and then transfer to an oven save dish for baking on step 4.
