Easy

Ingredients

  • 2 handfuls of chopped tomatoes
  • ½ cup olives
  • 4 chopped anchovies
  • 2 T capers
  • 200 g ricotta cheese
  • 400 g al dente gnocchi
  • Olive oil
  • Crusty bread

Method

Fold  handfuls of chopped tomatoes, olives, chopped anchovies, capers and ricotta cheese into al dente gnocchi.
