"There isn't much that beats a nice, warm pasta bake for comfort, and it's even better yet when said pasta bake is easy to throw together. With this one-pan gnocchi lasagna bake from recipe developer A.J. Forget, you get the best of both worlds. There is no need to boil pasta beforehand, and no need to even dirty a second dish. It all comes together in that one pan, and then"
"Instead, lasagna is the inspiration for the dish, and each bite of the gnocchi bake evokes those same cheesy, tomatoey flavors. The advantage here, of course, is that the traditional lasagna noodles are replaced with fluffy little gnocchi. That means no boiling pasta and no painstaking layering - just a quick cook of the vegetables and sauce before tossing in the rest, topping it with cheese,"
The one-pan gnocchi lasagna bake requires no pre-boiling of pasta and cooks entirely in a single pan before finishing in the oven. Fluffy gnocchi and chunks of eggplant simmer in a rich tomato sauce and are complemented by creamy ricotta for a filling comfort meal. Preparation involves a quick cook of vegetables and sauce, then combining the components, topping with cheese, and baking until bubbly. The dish draws inspiration from lasagna without layered noodles by substituting gnocchi for traditional pasta. Ricotta adds thickness compared with béchamel, and choosing béchamel would require reducing crushed tomatoes because the sauce is thinner.
