Cottage Cheese Gnocchi with Fresh Herb Sauce

Directions

1. Pulse all of the gnocchi ingredients except the flour in a food processor. Add the flour ½ cup at a time. It should result in a sticky dough ball.
2. Turn the dough out on a floured surface and knead, gradually adding more flour, until it reaches a dough-like consistency.
3. Divide the dough into 8 equal sections and roll them into long snakes.
4. Cut the dough into small, inch-long pieces.
5. Boil a large pot of water. While you wait for it to boil, pulse the sauce ingredients together in a blender until smooth.
6. Carefully lower the gnocchi into the water. As the gnocchi cook, use a measuring cup to remove a cup of pasta water.
7. On another burner, heat the sauce in a large skillet. Add ½ cup of pasta water and stir to combine.
8. As the gnocchi float to the top, use a slotted spoon to transfer them into the skillet.
9. Cook the gnocchi on the stove for a few minutes so the sauce clings to the pasta. Serve immediately.
