We recently bought some gnocchi at Costco and have been having fun with new recipes. We also have a recipe to make gnocchi, but we haven't quite gotten there yet.
This was a really great soup. It wasn't quite like Olive Garden's, but it may have been even better in some regards. We also didn't like the soup as much as a cream sauce with spinach and pine nut gnocchi recipe, but it was fun to try something different. We can definitely see this recipe as being great for a colder evening or a nice rainy day.

What we liked:
It was a fun new recipe
What we didn't like:
Nothing, it was good.
What Kaspian thought about it:
He liked the gnocchi, although he mostly wanted them out of the soup. Astrid loved everything.
Next time:
I am not sure if we will make it again. While it was fun to try, it didn't really seem as memorable to make again
