Tuscan Butter Gnocchi

This was delicious! It falls a bit short of being a single-pot meal, although you could probably get away with preparing it in a large dutch oven and then baking it there. The entire family declared it to be a favourite, and while it takes a while to prepare it's quite easy to do.
