Yummy!
Every dinner needs 4 things to make it complete! It's a square meal.
1. one heavy dish
2. one light/snack-like dish
3. something healthy
4. something sweet
Well since you have the gnocchi already, the heavy dish is covered. Gnocchi is very heavy because it's made of potato!
Now you need a complimentary snack dish/side dish. You could go with: Bruschetta, crab cakes, stuffed bell peppers (they look pretty too! But don't use so much cheese) or if it's something more casual, salami wrapped around cream cheese!
For something healthy, crunchy greens are always the best! Salads, broccoli, asparagus, celery ect. If you aren't so much into veggies, go with plain or wild rice, and add in whatever you like to cut the taste of greens, or even add in different things like roasted pineapple and nuts!
Something sweet is usually saved for last. Unless you eat dessert first! With a dish like gnocchi, avoid heavier things, and stay simple. A nice dish of vanilla bean ice cream with blackberries or raspberries should do the trick just fine.

Gnocchi is a very filling dish so whatever you choose it needs to be light!
However my suggestions would be
Rocket Salad : Rocket, Tomatoes, Red Onion and a dashing of olive oil. Really light and nice if you want something more hefty you could also added some grilled chicken too.
Grilled tomatoes and pepper with a light coating of mozzarella is also beautiful too.
Really recommend both those things for you to try, they are beautiful.

REALLY SIMPLE CHICKEN CORDON BLEU boneless skinless chicken breasts ham swiss cheese your choice of shake 'n bake This dish is different in that the chicken is not pounded or rolled up. Skinless, boneless chicken breasts are recommended. However many you want or need. Use any type of Shake 'n Bake: Barbecue Glaze, Original, Extra Crispy, or Hot 'n Spicy (recommended). Heat the oven to 400F°. Coat the breasts with the Shake 'n Bake, and put them in the oven for 15 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool somewhat. Slice them in half, and add a slice or two of thin ham and a slice of Swiss cheese. Put the other half back on top. Return them to the oven for another 5 minutes or so. Serve as-is or top them with your favorite gravy or sauce. Enjoy! BROWN RICE 1 cup white rice 1 stick Blue Bonnet marg or butter 1 can Cambell's Beef Consomme 1 can Cambell's French Onion Soup Preheat oven to 350°F.

I definitely prefer fresh vegetables more. I don't like all the acid in many fruits.

Fruits are developed from the ovary in the base of the flower, and contain the seeds of the plant.
