If you haven't tried cauliflower gnocchi, it's quite tasty and super simple as a base for dinner or a main meal. While we often have cauliflower gnocchi for meatless Mondays with lots of roasted vegetables, I decided to add in gluten-free sweet Italian sausage to make this gluten-free cauliflower gnocchi bake!
If you haven't tried (or don't have time!) to make gluten-free gnocchi from scratch, this is a great alternative. This gluten-free cauliflower gnocchi from Whole Food's is certified gluten-free, and tastes amazing. It plumps up nicely in the oven, getting golden brown, and has a great taste and texture once cooked. Yum!
Along with the cauliflower gnocchi, I cook vegetables (carrots, brussel sprouts, peppers, whatever you like) according to my favorite roasted vegetables method, and cook the sausage. I brown the sausage on the stovetop and then finish in the oven along with the vegetables and gnocchi, so they cook at the same time. Then, I mix everything in a bowl, (sometimes adding parmesan cheese), and enjoy!
Here's how to make my favorite cauliflower gnocchi and vegetable bake!

Gluten-Free Cauliflower Gnocchi & Vegetables
Gluten-Free Cauliflower Gnocchi, Vegetables & Sausage
A yummy collection of tasty ingredients for a protein-packed dinner!
Ingredients
- 1 package (16 oz) fresh, shelf stable cauliflower gnocchi, or any other gnocchi of choice
- 3-4 carrots, chopped
- 10-12 brussel sprouts, halved
- 1 package sweet Italian sausage, chopped
- Extra virgin olive oil
- sea salt & freshly cracked pepper
- dried rosemary or another dried herb of choice
- Parmesan cheese, for garnish
Instructions
Preheat oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit. Chop vegetables into small, similar-sized pieces, so they cook evenly. Toss with the fresh gnocchi, 1-2 Tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, salt & pepper to taste, and 1-2 teaspoons of dried rosemary or herb of choice. Place on a baking sheet, spreading them out, but leave room on one side for the sausages.
Brown the sausages on the stovetop over medium heat, for 7-8 minutes until browned on each side. Don't worry about them being fully cooked - they will finish cooking in the oven. When the sausages have browned all over, place them on the baking sheet with the vegetables.
Roast the vegetables, gnocchi and sausages for 20 minutes, turning them halfway. Check for tenderness in the vegetables by piercing them with a fork and cut into the sausages to make sure they are done. Remove from oven and set aside to cut sausages into pieces.
Sprinkle with freshly grated parmesan cheese, and enjoy!
