A Pasta Pot Pick + A Crispy Gnocchi Recipe

Plus a recap of the week...

Every Friday, we share a quick roundup of products we actually use and love - whether in the kitchen, at the table, or while shopping. These are the tools and staples that make cooking, serving, and clean-up easier and more enjoyable. For our paid subscribers, we’re excited to bring you a fresh new recipe every week. This Friday’s feature: Crispy Gnocchi with Tomatoes, Zucchini & Burrata

Happy Friday! We covered a lot of ground this week: On Monday we looked at meals we have been loving recently (Dr. Weil shared how to make two of his favorites, including Stir-Fried Veggies with Tofu, while Diana shared Cold Noodles with Tomatoes, Baked Feta Pasta and more). We also looked at pasta salad, with cooking suggestions, alternative pasta suggestions, how to make this classic dish a little healthier and more - including three pasta salad recipes and why cooking pasta al dente is the healthiest way to go!

On Wednesday we did a deeper dive into fake matcha, plus a guide to matcha tea: what to look for when buying, it’s multiple health benefits, and some simple preparations for matcha hot or cold. Plus a look at the prebiotic foods that can promote gut health, reduce bloating and more.

Today we offer up our picks and a tasty gnocchi recipe that incoporates seasonal foods. Enjoy!

• Follow Your Heart Vegenaise. Diana mentioned this in her take on vegan mayo on Monday… we both use this. A tasty plant-based mayo with simple ingredients. - Dr. Weil and Diana

• "Original" Ceremonial Grade Matcha. This daily ceremonial grade is a high-quality matcha and good for anyone just starting to drink matcha. - Dr. Weil and Diana

• Cuisinart Classic Pasta Pot with Straining Lid. You ideally want plenty of water when cooking pasta, and this pasta pot is a great option - I love that the drainer is built right into the lid! - Diana

We’d love to hear from you!

Crispy Gnocchi with Tomatoes, Zucchini & Burrata

This has become one of our favorite weeknight meals. It’s ready in about 20-25 minutes and both colorful and nutritious. Feel free to swap out burrata for mozzarella balls or even feta, although we love how the burrata adds a creaminess. This is a great one to make when your garden is in full swing!
