Cooking Steps
Before starting, wash and dry all produce. Core, then cut pepper into 1/2-inch pieces. Trim, then halve snap peas. Roughly chop spinach. Peel, then mince or grate garlic.
Heat a large non-stick pan over medium heat. When hot, add 1/2 tbsp oil (dbl for 4 ppl) then peppers and snap peas. Cook, stirring often, until tender-crisp, 4-5 min. Add garlic and cook, stirring often, until fragrant, 30 sec. Season with salt and pepper, then transfer veggies to a plate. Cover to keep warm.
Heat the same pan over medium. When hot, add 2 tbsp butter and swirl the pan to melt. Add gnocchi and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden-brown, 6-8 min. (NOTE: For 4 ppl, cook gnocchi in two batches, using 2 tbsp butter for each batch!)
While gnocchi cooks, add cream, cream cheese and half the Parmesan to a medium bowl, then whisk until smooth. Add 1/3 cup water (dbl for 4 ppl) and season with salt and pepper, then whisk to combine.
Add sauce, cooked veggies and spinach to the pan with gnocchi. Cook, stirring occasionally, until spinach wilts and sauce thickens slightly, 2-3 min.
Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Divide gnocchi, veggies and sauce between plates. Sprinkle remaining Parmesan over top. Sprinkle with as many chili flakes as desired.
