Ingredients

• 2 tbsp olive oil

• 1 onion, finely sliced

• 1 large head broccoli, separated into florets

• 300g reduced-fat cream cheese

• 3 tbsp fresh pesto

• 400g fresh gnocchi

• Juice 1 lemon

Directions

1 Heat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/ gas 6. Heat the olive oil in a large ovenproof frying pan or shallow casserole and fry the onion for 2-3 minutes. Add the broccoli and stir-fry for a further 2 minutes.

2 Mix in the cream cheese, pesto and 160ml water, then heat gently, stirring to combine. Meanwhile, microwave the gnocchi for 1 minute on high (or boil, following the pack instructions). Stir into the sauce with lots of black pepper, the lemon juice and salt to taste.

3 Nestle the salmon fillets in the sauce among the gnocchi and bake for 12-14 minutes until the salmon is just cooked through. Serve straightaway.

Notes

Next Time: Swap the gnocchi for cooked baby new potatoes. Serve with spinach for more veg.
