"My father was Italian and made this traditional dish when company visited," shares Ruth Fiori Poyner of Boise, Idaho. "The tender, homemade pasta is as tantalizing today as it was when I was a child."

Ingredients

4 cups mashed potatoes (without added milk and butter)
2 cups all-purpose flour
1-1/2 teaspoons salt
2 eggs
1 egg yolk
4 teaspoons olive oil
3 quarts water
1 jar (24 ounces) meatless spaghetti sauce
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Directions

In a large bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, flour and salt. In another bowl, whisk the eggs, yolk and olive oil; add to potato mixture. Turn onto a heavily floured surface; knead for 3-5 minutes or until smooth. Divide into fourths. On a floured surface, roll each portion into a 3/4-in.-thick rope; cut into 1-in. pieces.
In a Dutch oven, bring water to a boil. Cook gnocchi in batches for 45-60 seconds or until they rise to the surface. Remove with a strainer. Serve spaghetti sauce over gnocchi; sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.
