i’d love to see a photo of the gnocchi dough itself, just to see how blended it really should be.

I serve up a big bowl of fresh grapes and raw almonds when I am very busy. When I don't have time to cook, we have an opportunity to eat raw and healthy. Good health to you and yours, Many blessings.

They really are one of my favorite foods, but they are time-intensive, which is why I usually just make a bunch at once and freeze some. Oh, I hope you like them!
