Best sauce to go with cheese gnocchi?
I bought some fresh made cheese gnocchi earlier today, but I have no idea what kind of sauce to use with it! Could I just use a jar of store bought tomato sauce or vodka sauce or would a cream sauce be better?
Any recommendations or recipes would be greatly appreciated. Thank you :)

Any of the sauces you mentioned would work, but I make a homemade meat sauce w/ ground sirloin, onions and garlic

Ooh! Vodka sauce would be good [truth is, any sauce you mentioned would be good ... but don't buy Ragu, that's for babies]
Ingredients
5 large tomatoes [use canned if tomatoes are out of season, I like Red Gold and San Marzano]
1/3 cup extra – virgin olive oil
2 garlic cloves, very thinly sliced
1/4 cup vodka
Coarse salt, to taste
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Pinch of red pepper flakes
1/2 cup heavy cream
Leaves from 3 or 4 large fresh flat – leaf parsley sprigs, coarsely chopped
Method
Peel and seed the tomatoes, then cut them into small dice. If the tomatoes are very juicy, drain them for about 10 minutes in a colander. Set aside.
In a large fry pan over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Add the garlic and sauté until just starting to turn golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove the pan from the stovetop and add the vodka. Return the pan to medium heat and cook until reduced by half. Add the tomatoes, salt, black pepper and red pepper flakes and simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes.
Add the cooked gnocchi and then the cream and cook, stirring, over medium heat until the gnocchi is well coated with the sauce, about 2 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasonings. Pour into a warmed large, shallow bowl. Add the parsley and toss briefly. Serve immediately.

My favorite sauce with gnocchi is pesto but you could use any sauce you like. Anything goes good with gnocchi.
