Spinach and Ricotta Gnocchi

Creamy Spinach and Ricotta Gnocchi

Ingredients:

- 2 cups fresh spinach, chopped
- 1 cup ricotta cheese
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/2 cup marinara sauce (optional, for serving)
- Fresh basil leaves for garnish (optional)

Directions:

1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add chopped spinach and cook for 1-2 minutes until wilted. Drain and squeeze out excess water. Chop finely.
2. In a large bowl, combine ricotta cheese, flour, Parmesan cheese, egg, salt, and pepper. Mix until a dough forms.
3. Gently fold in the chopped spinach. If the dough is too sticky, add a little more flour.
4. On a floured surface, divide the dough into small portions. Roll each portion into a rope about 1/2 inch thick, then cut into 1-inch pieces.
5. Press each piece lightly with a fork to create ridges.
6. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the gnocchi in batches, cooking for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.

WHAT IS REIKI ENERGY?
Reiki energy is understood by practitioners as a universal life force ("Ki") guided by higher wisdom ("Rei") that flows abundantly from a cosmic source through a healer acting as a conduit. To channel this energy, practitioners place their hands gently on or just above specific areas of the recipient's body, standardly targeting the head, front of the torso and back. These precise hand positions correspond to major organs, nerve centers, and energy meridians to effectively clear blocks and balance the body's natural biomagnetic fields. While science does not recognize this universal life force, clinical perspectives attribute Reiki's healing benefits to the deep relaxation response these localized hand placements trigger, which lowers stress and supports natural recovery.

REIKI SHARE is a wonderful opportunity for us to join together to give and receive Reiki to help nurture, heal and support you, as well as others. Hosted by Reiki Master Ursula Bradwell, this practise includes cleansing our energy meridians and Reiki healing.

You can be either seated or lying down, whichever is more relaxing for you – and allow the energy to flow. There is no pressure for you to do anything. You’re welcome to set your intention, the practise is for your own highest good, or for that of others – the choice is yours.
Held first Thursday of every month.
