Beyond Creamy Mushroom Gnocchi

Vegetarian and satisfying.

This recipe is perfect for a quick night meal. I usually use the sauce to put over gnocchi which I recommend because it is delicious, but also you can do spaghetti squash or other healthy more low carb substitutes. It is so yummy though, I honestly could just eat the sauce by itself!

You also could add heavy cream to thicken up or coconut milk but I think the greek yogurt helps enough.
