Looking for a delicious dinner that feels like a warm hug in a bowl? This Italian Sausage and Tomato Gnocchi recipe, made (sort of) effortlessly with the aid of your Thermomix, is exactly what you need! Packed with rich, savoury flavors from perfectly seasoned sausage and our family favourite Marinara Sauce, this dish is a crowd-pleaser that’s as easy to make as it is to devour. Whether you’re a seasoned Thermomix pro or just starting your journey, this recipe is the perfect blend of comfort and flavour. Get ready to fall in love with your new favourite weeknight meal!

What I love about the attached gnocchi recipe, which does take a bit of effort, is that it makes a truckload and you can freeze the uncooked gnocchi that you will definitely not want to eat all at once, and use for weeks and months to come. Alternatively, make a different gnocchi recipe, we have loads or purchase a good quality gnocchi, but don't let me know about it! You could also serve this with short pasta of your choice.
