This is our go-to recipe for Chicken Gnocchi Soup. I sometimes make homemade gnocchi, but when I’m in a hurry I buy the gnocchi at ALDI for just $1.99. I’m not a huge fan of the Olive Garden, but this recipe tastes like the Chicken Gnocchi Soup on their menu that my daughter loves. Plus, it’s super-easy to make at home.
