This has become one of my new favorite recipes! As you all know, I’m a huge fan of meals you can dump and bake. This sheet pan recipe is so easy and full of so many delicious flavors. After throwing all the ingredients on the sheet pan, you toss it in the oven and can sit back and relax until dinner time.
I love baked gnocchi (more than boiled gnocchi!). It still gives that “pillowy” effect of gnocchi, but crisps the outside perfectly in the oven. You may notice one half of my pan looks different than the other. Peter is not a fan of peppers or tomatoes, so I left one side of the pan with just the gnocchi, broccoli, and sausage. Another reason I love sheet pan recipes…you can easily customize to your liking!
This recipe is also perfect for lunch meal prep. I brought leftovers for lunch this week, and it was just as delicious reheated as it was the night we made it. Which truthfully is not always the case with gnocchi! Hope you all enjoy this one as much as we do!

Ingredients
1 lb potato gnocchi, uncooked
12 oz chicken sausage, sliced
2 small or 1 medium sized bell peppers, sliced
1 large head of broccoli (about 1.5-2 cups), chopped into bite sized pieces
12 oz grape tomatoes, sliced in half
Balsamic glaze
Parmesan cheese
Spice options: pepper, salt, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder
Directions
- Preheat oven to 425°F. Grab a non-stick sheet pan, or spray with nonstick spray.
- Pour gnocchi onto sheet pan, breaking apart any pieces that are stuck together. Then add the sausage, bell peppers, broccoli, and tomatoes. Evenly distribute these on the pan and then drizzle balsamic glaze over the top of the sheet pan.
- Bake in oven for 20-22 minutes, tossing once halfway through. After tossing, sprinkle parm cheese on top. You can also add additional glaze if you want more. Finish baking.
- Serve and enjoy!
Notes
- I used shelf-stable gnocchi which you can find in the pasta aisle!
- There are some ingredients I hesitate to put an amount for because to me it is such personal taste. I put about 2 T of glaze on and about 1/4 cup of parm cheese. Don’t think too hard on the spices: give it a quick shake and you’re good to go!
- Store in air-tight container in fridge for 3-4 days.
