Ingredients

1 medium onion, chopped
2 medium garlic cloves, finely chopped
3 cups vegetable broth
1 can diced tomatoes (15 oz can)
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
2 tbsp sundried tomatoes in oil
2 tsp italian seasoning
1/2 tsp garlic powder
3/4 tsp sea salt
1 can white beans (15 oz can)
1 package frozen cauliflower gnocchi
2 cups baby spinach

Instructions

Chop the onions and finely chop the garlic.
Preheat a large pot over medium heat. When the pot is hot, add olive oil and chopped onions. Cook 2-3 minutes.
Once the onions start to become translucent, add the garlic and cook 1-2 minutes.
Add about 1/2 - 1 cup of vegetable broth and scrape the bottom of the pot, getting off all the brown bits from sauting the onions and garlic.
Add the rest of the vegetable broth, diced tomatoes, spices and sundried tomatoes. Turn the heat up to high and allow this to come to a boil.
Rinse and drain the white beans.
Once boiling, add the gnocchi and white beans. Cook for 8 minutes (only 2 minutes for shelf-stable gnocchi).
After 8 minutes, add the baby spinach and stir well. Turn off the heat and continue to stir until the spinach is fully wilted.
