Ingredients

  • 500 g salmon
  • 500 g gnocchi
  • 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables
  • 2 handfuls fresh spinach
  • ½ cup cashews
  • ¾ cup milk
  • 1 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp cream cheese
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • ¼ tsp garlic granules
  • Salt and pepper

Instructions

  1. Remove the skin from the salmon and cut it into bite-sized pieces.
  2. Heat a pan over medium heat with a little oil. Add the salmon and cook for 7–8 minutes until fully cooked through.
  3. While the salmon cooks, blend the cashews, milk, Dijon mustard, cream cheese, paprika, garlic granules, salt, and pepper until completely smooth.
  4. Boil the gnocchi with the frozen mixed vegetables for 3–4 minutes until the gnocchi floats to the top. Drain well.
  5. Add the spinach, cooked gnocchi, mixed vegetables, and creamy sauce into the pan with the salmon. Stir gently to combine.
  6. Simmer for 2–3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and the spinach wilts. Serve warm.

Notes

  • You can substitute spinach with kale or arugula.
  • Use dairy-free milk and cream cheese for a lactose-free version.
  • Toast the cashews beforehand for a deeper flavor.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
