Recipe by Rain Adkins. I threw it together one night when I wanted something hearty but fast. You can of course do it with fresh greens.

How To Make gnocchi, greens & chickpeas in spicy tomato broth

Step 1

In a large saucepan, cook gnocchi according to package directions in just enough vegetable broth to cover--this generally only takes a couple minutes, max.

Step 2

Drain, reserving broth. Heat olive oil oil in a NONSTICK skillet,and brown gnocchi lightly. Last minute or two of cooking (not earlier!), add garlic.
Step 3

Return gnocchi, broth, garlic and oil to saucepan. Add remaining ingredients, plus a little more veggie broth if needed or desired (i.e., if you want soup.) Simmer till greens are tender but not overcooked. Adjust seasonings and serve in bowls.
