Instructions

In a large pot, heat olive oil and butter over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, carrots, and celery. Cook until softened, about 7 minutes.
Sprinkle in thyme and rosemary. Season with salt and pepper. Pour in the broth and bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
Add gnocchi and cook for 3–4 minutes until they float to the surface.
Lower heat and stir in milk or cream. Add baby spinach and let it wilt, about 1–2 minutes.
Optional: Stir in grated Parmesan. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed before serving.

Notes

For a dairy-free version, use oat milk or coconut cream and omit Parmesan. For added protein, stir in shredded chicken or sausage. Avoid overcooking gnocchi, they’re done once they float.
