  • 1 tsp sea salt divided
  • ¼ tsp black pepper omit for AIP
  • ½ onion diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • ¼ cup celery finely chopped

For the cauliflower gnocchi

Instructions
 

  • Using a large, deep saute pan, brown the ground beef and lightly season with salt and pepper. Once browned, set aside and reserve 2 tbsp of fat in the pan.
  • Add the onion and garlic to the pan and saute for 4-5 minutes or until translucent. Add the carrots and celery and cook for 3-4 minutes or until slightly fork tender.
  • Stir in the crushed tomato (or nomato sauce), broth, white wine (if using) and reincorporate the ground beef. Stir well and season with parsley and dried oregano. Bring the sauce to a low simmer. Cover and simmer for 30-35 minutes or until the sauce is reduced and flavorful. Season further to taste.
  • Add the prepared gnocchi to the pan and stir to coat in the sauce. Serve fresh topped with basil.

Notes

Though alcohol is not AIP compliant, cooking wine allows the alcohol to cook off. If you still choose to forgo the wine, just substitute for broth.
