Gnudi -- or something like it.

A sassy friend of mine told me about gnudi, and how easy it is to make. So, I came home and made this up. It's not gluten free, nor it is vegan. However, it is a quick and easy dinner that will please the pasta lovers among us. Basically these are little dumplings of spinach and cheese. They were wolfed down by everyone with grunts of enjoyment, and requests for seconds.

ingredients:

300 g chopped and cooked spinach
6 eggs
500 g pressed cottage cheese
2 tbsp parmesan, crumbled

black pepper
2 tsp sea salt
dash nutmeg

2 cups finely ground whole grain kamut flour


directions:

1. combine the spinach, eggs, cottage cheese, and parmesan
2. using an immersion blender (or food processor), process the ingredients together
3. add the seasonings and flour and stir together until fully combined
4. let sit covered in the fridge for a couple of hours
5. bring a large pot of water to the boil
6. drop tsp of dough into boiling water and scoop out as they rise to the surface
7. serve with a well simmered tomato sauce
