Gnocchi with pumpkin and sausage are a first course that smells of autumn, with an enveloping flavor and colors that evoke the first cold and falling leaves.
Personally, I love autumn very much and this dish I’m about to show you is one of my favorite dishes made with pumpkin.
This time, too, I recommend trying the recipe and, as always, I’m waiting for your opinions on my Instagram @isaporidicasa.
