Gnocchi Substitutes:
While traditional potato gnocchi is a classic choice, don't be afraid to experiment with different pasta options. If you're in the mood for a change, you can easily replace the gnocchi with your favorite type of pasta. Whether it's penne, linguine, or even farfalle, the mushroom sauce will effortlessly coat any pasta shape, allowing you to customize the dish according to your preferences.
Garlic Bread Alternative: A Fresh Twist
Garlic bread is undoubtedly a crowd-pleaser, but if you're looking to lighten up your meal or add a refreshing element, consider serving mushroom gnocchi with a nice green salad. The crisp and vibrant greens, combined with a tangy dressing, create a perfect contrast to the savory flavors of the gnocchi. Experiment with different leafy greens, such as arugula, spinach, or mixed lettuce, and add your favorite vegetables for a personalized touch.
Bon appétit!
