Although many variations of gnocchi have existed before, potato gnocchi likely dates back to the 16th or 17th century. In the 19th century Pellegrino Artusi penned a recipe for our modern pillowy gnocchi that we enjoy today. Since then, professional and home cooks alike have taken many liberties with potato gnocchi to create a variety of new dishes. This original recipe celebrates the best of "summer magic" with Lisbon lemon, fresh herbs, pesto, mushrooms, red onion, and Delicata squash ( which is technically part of the summer squash family due to its thin skin) and fluffy roasted potato gnocchi! Admittedly this dish possesses no magical powers–unless you are considering its taste and nutritional value! Due to the variety of ingredients in this dish it is a great source of potassium, dietary fiber, and contains iron, folate, magnesium, manganese, and vitamins C, K, A, D, and several types of B vitamins. It's also ready in just 20 minutes. That is magical!
