Heat the oil in a large pan on low heat and add the onions. Saute on low for 10 minutes, stirring every few minutes. Add salt at the 10-minute mark and continue to cook for another 20 minutes, stirring every few minutes, until the onions are soft and caramelized. Remove from the pan and set aside.
Using a large skillet, brown the beef and crumble with a wooden spoon. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Set aside.
Add the sauce mixture to the pan and bring to a low simmer for 1-2 minutes to thicken. Reincorporate the ground beef, cooked gnocchi, and caramelized onions. Stir to combine and coat until fully combined and coated.
