gnocchi with quick meat sauce

The September issue of Everyday Food magazine features Gnocchi with Quick Meat Sauce.

This was a very quick and easy dinner to make that went over very well with Owen. He loves gnocchi and it's been ages since we had it last. As he was loving his dinner he kept pointing to the gnocchi and asking what they are called. "Gnocchi", I'd say, pronouncing it very slowly and clearly. "Yucky, it's not yucky, I like it!" These little dumplings are far too easy to eat and this sauce paired very nicely. Only after finishing this sauce did I realize that it makes enough for a second meal. Looks like we're eating Summer Beef and Rice Casserole tomorrow.
