YUM!! I mixed this idea with 1/2 C whole wheat flour and 1C pureed spinach and OH BOY! My family went wild for it! Not having to bake the potatoes saved me so much time and effort and I didn't notice a difference. I got the vitamins in and they got their beloved "pasta" for dinner. loved it!

My family had gnocci at a local restaurant (Whitby, ON, Canada). I had to try to make it. My wife and kids loved it. I followed other sugestions and did not make the gnocci to stiff. I found that they floated rather quickly and boiled them for 7 minutes regardless. This was a great recipe.

I have never made gnocchi before so maybe I disliked this recipe because of my inexperience in making them. I love them in restaurants so was disappointed. I found the dough to be too soft and sticky. I added more flour but then was afraid the gnocchi would become tough. I will probably keep to see if I can find a simpler way for me to get them to turn out.

This was fairly easy to make. I used left over real mashed potatoes cup for cup instead of the potato flakes and ommited the water. It was a good way to use left-over mashed potatoes.

I hate pasta but I LOVE gnocchi! What I don't like is the price of enough to feed the family, $18 per two packs at Costco so I thought I'd give this a shot. I don't think I used even half the flour it called for but it was SO good! It left me wondering if I've ever had the real "from spuds" thing! THANKS!!!!

I've only had gnocchi a few times, so I don't know how mine compared but they were really good if a little bland. I followed one reviewers advice and after making the dough (No idea if I added enough flour or too little) I scooped it into a large plastic bag and cut the corner off. Then I just squeezed it out and cut with scissors dipped in flour. This was a two person job though. My only regret was using canned sauce because it took longer than I thought to do the gnocchi and we were hungry. Didn't like the sauce but the gnocchi were good. I plan to make these with spinach and cheese gnocchi and a sausage marinara sauce for a party next week.

I have never made gnocchi before. I am glad that I read al the reviews first. This worked out very well. I added fresh garlic, some italian seasonings. I drizzled it with fresh garlic and olive oil instead of sauce. It turned out delicious and I am keeping it in my recipe box. After rolling out the first rope, I felt it was a little too long to work with, so I would recommend dividing it into four balls and then rolling into ropes. I served it with sweet italian sausage and the french baguettes submitted by Judy Taubert. I ate so much, I should have exploded!

These are delicious but the recipe needs WAAY more flour than it says. At least twice as much. Otherwise the dough is too sticky and impossible to roll.

Not sure if I cooked it long enough or to long. It was okay. Needs to add cooking directions.

This was quite good and fairly easy, though time consuming. I made 2 batches and froze them until I used them (just through them in the pot of boiling water from the freezer). Served with sage butter sauce. Very good! I also added a little dried basil into the dough for looks and taste.

I grew up making gnocchi with my Italian grandmother and she would substitute instant potatoes sometimes. I never knew a good ratio though so I was so glad when I found this because with real potatoes is a lot of work when you have 2 year old twins. I will definitely be making this again. I didn't need as much flour as the recipe called for. It does get very sticky but that is how it should be. After you mix it all together into a dough, if you put it on a floured cookie sheet in the fridge for at least 15 minutes, it will make it a ton easier to work with. It will get stickier as it warms though. Also, if you roll them 1/2" thick, they will be less dumpling like as some people stated. I found this recipe to be extremely good and will definitely be making them again!
