GNOCCHI FOR A DAUGHTER'S BIRTHDAY

With my daughter's birthday next week, I thought a quick Sunday lunch was a good thing to do. The kids are going away for her real birthday so an early celebration would do.So I boiled 1/2 bag of potatoes to make a few gnocchi for it. Well I needed to knead and knead the dough plus add lots of flour. I called my helper or sous chef as she likes to be called to help with the shaping and finishing of them. Barb said we will be here until midnight but actually once we got rolling, it was 9 p.m. Barb also commented- there is enough for several Sunday lunches. 
Of course we needed to have a few with a quick dinner during the week.
Gnocchi are a great side dish or can be the main event. For the Sunday meal, there will be a variety of chicken. Everyone likes chicken! Lots of veggies. Haven't decided yet on the final menu! A cake! I'll probably let you know how the event went.
If you need the recipe for gnocchi, just hunt in my list of posts and you will find it.
