Instructions
 

Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper to facilitate easy cleanup and prevent sticking.

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the potato gnocchi, fresh broccoli florets, halved cherry tomatoes, and diced red bell pepper.

      Pour in the minced garlic, olive oil, Italian seasoning, and a generous sprinkle of salt and black pepper. Gently toss all the ingredients together until the gnocchi and vegetables are evenly coated with the oil and seasonings.

        Transfer the gnocchi and vegetable mixture to the prepared sheet pan, spreading it out evenly to allow for even roasting.

          Evenly sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the top of the mixture, ensuring an even distribution for optimal flavor.

            Place the sheet pan into your preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes. Keep an eye on it, stirring the mixture halfway through to ensure the gnocchi become golden and the vegetables cook evenly until they are tender and slightly caramelized.

              Once the cooking time is complete, carefully remove the sheet pan from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes to allow the flavors to settle.

                Before serving, garnish with chopped fresh parsley to add a burst of freshness and color.
