Ingredients
  

1 pound gnocchi (fresh or shelf-stable)

2 cups butternut squash, diced

1 cup Brussels sprouts, halved

1 cup carrots, sliced

1 cup red bell pepper, diced

1 medium onion, chopped

3 cloves garlic, minced

4 cups vegetable broth

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon dried rosemary

Salt and pepper to taste

1 cup spinach or kale, chopped (optional)

½ cup parmesan cheese, grated (optional, for serving)

Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prep the Veggies: Start by washing and prepping all your vegetables. Dice the butternut squash, halve the Brussels sprouts, slice the carrots, chop the onion, and mince the garlic.

    Layer the Ingredients: In your crockpot, layer the diced butternut squash, Brussels sprouts, carrots, red bell pepper, and onion evenly at the bottom.

      Add Aromatics: Sprinkle the minced garlic over the vegetables.

        Pour the Broth: Carefully pour in the vegetable broth over the layered veggies.

          Season: Add thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper according to your taste. Stir gently to combine, ensuring the vegetables are well seasoned and submerged in the broth.

            Add Gnocchi: Finally, add the gnocchi on top (do not stir yet).

              Cook: Cover and cook on low for 6-7 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until vegetables are tender.

                Incorporate Greens: If you're using spinach or kale, stir it in during the last 30 minutes of cooking to allow it to wilt and integrate into the dish.

                  Serve: Once cooking is complete, give everything a gentle stir to combine. Adjust seasoning to taste. Serve hot, topped with grated parmesan cheese and fresh parsley if desired.
