I’m sure you’ve heard the chatter… January has been dubbed National Sunday Supper Month and the Famous Idaho Potato has been a great sponsor for the occasion. On January 10th, National Sunday Supper Day, a select group of Sunday Supper bloggers showcased a variety of “think outside the box” poutine recipes. I didn’t get chosen, but I knew I just had to participate! I mean who could beat a chance at winning a contest right?
Have you ever had a classic poutine? It consists of french fries, cheese curds and gravy. Well I’m breaking outside the box.. a lot… while still keeping the theme.
Gnocchi has always been my favorite Italian dish… usually with a delicate cheese sauce covering it. Well, that’s when I knew I just had to use Gnocchi as my base. Then… that’s when the toppings get really delicious.
Sirloin steak… isn’t that a gorgeous steak?! Produced right here on our farm. Perfect Angus steak!
Fried cheeseballs.
Mushroom gravy.
Amazingness on the tastebuds! Don’t take my word for it… try it out for yourself! Please… and then tell me what you think There’s a few steps so you’ll need to plan ahead, but it’s all worth it!
