Equipment

1 Non-stick skillet

Ingredients

½ lb thick cut bacon chopped
1 Tbsp butter or reserved bacon fat
1 lb Brussels sprouts trimmed and thinly sliced
1 280- gram bag of Olivieri Real Cheese Filled Skillet Gnocchi or other desired flavour, such as Pesto Mozzarella
1-2 Tbsp balsamic vinegar

Instructions

Add the chopped bacon to a non-stick skillet over medium heat and fry until crispy. Transfer the bacon to a paper towel lined plate. Drain the bacon fat from the pan and set aside.
Add 1 Tbsp of butter (or reserved bacon fat) to the skillet. Add the sliced brussels sprouts. Sauté the Brussels sprouts for about 5 minutes, or until tender-crisp (sauté for about 8 minutes if you want them to start browning).
Remove the Brussels sprouts from the skillet.
Add the gnocchi to the skillet and arrange in a single layer. Cook undisturbed for about 3 minutes, then flip and cook for another 2 minutes, or until heated through, brown and crisp.
Add the bacon and Brussels sprouts back to the pan with the gnocchi and stir to combine.
Add the balsamic vinegar and stir to coat.
Serve immediately
