Preparation Instructions:
- Step 1
- Use leftover mashed potatoes that have already been cooked according to package instructions and then chilled. Place vegetable blend in a food processor and pulse until in very small pieces.

- Turn dough onto a floured work surface. Knead dough with hands until it comes together into a ball and is no longer sticky. Add flour as needed. Divide dough into 1 cup size pieces. Roll into a 1-inch thick rope. Cut each rope into 1-inch pieces. Place pieces on a paper-lined sheet pan and refrigerate until cold and slightly dry.
- Step 3
- Melt butter In a sauté pan over medium heat. Add garlic and cook until just starting to brown. Deglaze with white wine. Add cream, lemon zest and Parmesan rind. Bring to a simmer over medium-low heat and reduce for about 10 minutes. Strain sauce through fine mesh strainer. Return to low heat and add in tarragon. Season to taste. Hold warm.
- Step 4
- For each serving; Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add 8 oz. gnocchi to the boiling water and cook until they float (about 2 minutes). Drain. Toss with 2 fl. oz. warm cream sauce. Garnish with additional tarragon, shredded Parmesan and lemon zest.
