Although gnocchi is a perennial Italian favorite, it's one of those dishes that truly complements the flavors associated with Fall. It pairs wonderfully with savory ingredients like wild mushrooms and sage — and unexpectedly well with sweet spice additions such as cinnamon sugar, too.
Even if you've never done it before, don't be intimidated by making gnocchi at home. If you don't want to roll out your own dough, start with the store-bought variety; otherwise, experiment with a simple, from-scratch version, which makes use of leftover mashed potatoes.
