Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Start by bringing a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Add the pre-packaged gnocchi and cook them for 2-3 minutes until they float to the surface.
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the boiled gnocchi to the pan and cook undisturbed for about 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
  3. Gently stir and flip the gnocchi to cook for another 2-3 minutes until evenly browned and crispy on all sides.
  4. Reduce the heat and add 2 minced garlic cloves to the pan. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant and lightly golden.
  5. Toss in a generous handful of fresh spinach, stirring it into the mix and cook for approximately 2-3 minutes until wilted.
  6. Season with salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes to taste. Stir in crumbled feta cheese until slightly melted and well combined.
