Prep
-
Ready In
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add gnocchi and cook until browned, about 5 minutes.
- Add riced cauliflower, bacon and water. Cover and simmer until the gnocchi are tender and the riced cauliflower is soft, about 5 minutes.
- Beat eggs with cheese and pepper in a small bowl. Remove pan from heat. Add the egg mixture to the gnocchi, stirring to coat evenly.
- Tip: When a recipe calls for raw eggs, you can minimize the risk of foodborne illness by using pasteurized-in-the-shell eggs. Look for them in the refrigerator case near other whole eggs.

Trader Joe’s sells them. $3/bag. 140 calls per 1C serving I think. Be sure to use a cooking method that crisps them (air-fryer, roasting, pan sautéed)
