INSTRUCTIONS
Bring large pot of salted water to boil. Heat 2 tsp olive oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add squash and zucchini and cook until lightly browned in places, about 3 to 4 minutes. Reduce heat to low and cook until veggies begin to break down, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to bowl and cover to keep warm. Wipe skillet clean.
Add gnocchi to boiling water and cook until they float, 3 to 5 minutes. Drain gnocchi. Melt butter in same skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add boiled gnocchi and cook, undisturbed, until browned in places, 2 to 4 minutes. Add melted summer squash and parmesan and stir to combine. Remove from heat and add lemon juice.
Divide parmesan gnocchi with melted summer squash between bowls. Top with basil, roasted tomatoes, and as much Aleppo pepper as you’d like. Serve with lemon wedges. Buon appetito!
