Even though gnocchi are similar to pasta because of their shape and color, they are not actually considered to be pasta. Gnocchi are acutally small Italian dumplings made from potato dough. This recipe contains plenty of tomatoes, which contain carotenoids and help mobilize the body's defenses.

Spinach or pumpkin gnocchi are also very common, which is perfect if you want to add some variety to your gnocchi recipe.
