Sheet Pan Gnocchi Meal Prep
How often do you meal prep? Sundays have been a little overwhelming for me every since I started working 9-5 on Saturdays and my weekend gets cut a little shorter so by the time Sunday night’s meal prepping session comes around, I just want to throw everything into a pot or pan and call it a day!
If you feel the same way (or if you’re looking to do a fast meal prep!) then this Sheet Pan Gnocchi Meal Prep is perfect for you! After a long day, this sheet pan meal prep is perfect — it’s mostly hands-off, it takes 30 minutes, and you only use one sheet pan! And the best part about this gnocchi meal prep? You don’t need to boil the gnocchi! Into the oven it goes.
What is Gnocchi?
Gnocchi are a variety of pasta consisting of various thick, small, and soft dough dumplings that may be made from potatoes and sometimes cheese and egg. They are usually prepared by boiling them but for today’s recipe, we are baking them in a sheet pan!
What You’ll Need To Make This Sheet Pan Gnocchi Meal Prep
- gnocchi
- red onion: I prefer my red onions to be diced into little squares, however, if you like them sliced, that works for this sheet pan recipe as well. Cook time stays the same.
- chickpeas: I like to use my Instant Pot to cook my chickpeas from dry. Canned chickpeas works as well.
- bell pepper: I used red bell peppers, use what you have or prefer!
- olive oil
- seasoning: I used this tomato, basil, oregano seasoning mix but it’s up to you how you’d like to season it.
- lemon
- Parmesan

Heat oven to 425F.
