Summer Sunday Dinner: Arctic Char and Gnocchi with Beet Green Pesto



When Peter was out of town last week, I made a summery version of this dish for myself. Instead of creamed greens, I made a pesto with blanched beet greens, goat cheese, lemon and a bit of olive oil. Instead of peas, I added some corn cut off the cob, and threw some chopped basil on top. It was so good, Peter and I had it again this week!

I know I don't usually subject you to photos of my salads (which we have almost every day), but this one looked so pretty to me! I think its the golden beets, brightening everything up.

Summer Sunday Dinner: Warm Weather Gnocchi 

  • Field green salad with golden beets and goat cheese
  • Arctic Char and gnocchi with beet green pesto
  • Raspberry swirl ice cream (I skipped the corn this time, and I'll be honest - not my favorite from her book. Maybe the corn makes all the difference?)
