Gnocchi are small, quick-cooking dumplings usually made from potatoes. Look for shelf-stable vacuum-packed packages of gnocchi with the dried pasta in your local supermarket. Serve this hearty main-dish soup with a crisp green salad.Prep: 1 minute; Cook: 14 minutes
Sirloin steak, condensed cream of mushroom soup, and paprika are combined with onions and nonfat sour cream for a different version of the traditional dish. It is served over egg noodles.
To make the soup ahead, omit the pasta and refrigerate or freeze the soup. As the soup reheats over medium heat, cook pasta separately according to package directions, then stir it in shortly before serving. Use leaves from celery stalks as a garnish.
A sauce of fresh cilantro, green onions, ginger, and garlic is stirred into the cooked rice to give it intense fragrance and flavor. Shiitake mushrooms add an earthy, smoky flavor.
