Nutritional values

Canned tomatoes contain plenty of lycopene, an antioxidant that protects our cells from harmful free radicals. Additionally, the two types of cheese this recipe uses provides our bodies with valuable protein and bone-strengthening calcium!

It is best to use gnocchi with whole-wheat flour or to try making them yourself! By using whole-wheat flour this will give the casserole a higher fiber content, keeping you full for longer.
