Make this easy and delicious meal when chard is in season locally to make sure the greens bring their buttery best to this combination of bite-sized pasta and simple beans.

Ingredients

1 Tbsp. + 1 tsp. olive oil, divided
1 (16 oz.) pkg. gnocchi
1 yellow onion, thinly sliced
4 cloves garlic, minced
½ cup water
6 cups chopped chard leaves
1 (15 oz.) can diced tomatoes with Italian seasonings
1 (15 oz.) can white beans, drained and rinsed
¼ tsp. pepper
½ cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
¼ cup shredded Parmesan cheese

Directions

Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add gnocchi and cook, stirring often, until plumped and starting to brown (5-7 minutes). Transfer to a bowl.
Add the remaining 1 teaspoon oil and onion to the pan and cook, stirring, over medium heat, until onion begins to soften (3-4 minutes). Stir in garlic and water. Cover and cook until the onion is soft (4-6 minutes). Add chard and stir until starting to wilt (1-2 minutes).
Stir in tomatoes, beans, and pepper and bring to a simmer. Stir in the gnocchi and sprinkle with mozzarella and Parmesan. Cover and cook until the cheese is melted and the sauce is bubbling (3-4 minutes).
