what’s your favorite way to use Trader Joe’s Cauli Gnocchi??

how about in a fire-roasted tomato, cauli gnocchi, kale, & white bean soup?

this has such a richness and complexity in flavor, specifically from the fire roasted tomatoes with green chilies. it’s spicy, bright, savory, umami and soo cozy. the cauli dumplings make it extra filling & fun to eat.
