Tender potato gnocchi make a nice change from the usual pasta. This quick sauce, capturing ripe tomatoes and fresh Canadian Ricotta cheese and cream with a hit of fresh basil is simple perfection.
Pop this in the slow cooker in the morning and come home to a moist and tasty meatloaf. This makes enough for leftovers for terrific meatloaf sandwiches the next day.
Serve as a sit down appetizer with mixed greens tossed in Dijon vinaigrette or as a vegetable side dish. For variety, try cremini, shitake or a combination of mushrooms.
