Instructions

Boil a large pot of salted water and cook gnocchi until they rise, about 2-3 minutes; drain.
Heat olive oil in a pan over medium-high, add gnocchi, and let them cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes for crispy texture.
Flip gnocchi and cook on all sides for another 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
Add minced garlic, sauté for 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn.
Toss in fresh spinach and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes.
Season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes; stir well.
Mix in crumbled feta cheese and let it melt slightly before serving.

Notes

For extra flavor, cook the spinach first if preferred.
Store leftovers in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days.
Reheat in a skillet with a splash of water or olive oil to retain texture.
