for christmas, i got (personal sized) cast iron skillets that i had been asking for for a while. i finally put them to use and made gnocchi gratin for our first official meal in our new place. i was flipping through a magazine a few weeks ago and snapped a picture of the recipe and i've been dying to try it since. let me tell you, it was easy, and really,
really delicious and creamy. (although i found it a little on the pricey side, personally. mostly the cheese; the mascarpone was $7.50 and the parmesan $4. to be expected.)
dinner is served.
getting full at this point.
what i liked about the recipe is that it had no oil, butter, or cream. so for a 'mac and cheese', it was fairly healthy. and not lacking in flavor. in the magazine, it said it served 6. ummm..i got everything into 2 personal sized skillets; dylan ate all of his and i ate about 3/4 of mine. so yeah, i wouldn't say it serves 6. but go ahead. make it!
