Let’s start preparing the Gnocchi with pumpkin and mushrooms. Preheat the static oven to 356°F, clean the pumpkin removing the seeds, internal filaments, and skin. Cut the pumpkin into small pieces, and place them in a baking dish. Add the chopped onion, extra virgin olive oil, and a pinch of salt, bake and cook for 20 minutes.
Clean the mushrooms, pour some extra virgin olive oil into a pot, add the garlic clove, mushrooms, and some salt, cook for 15 minutes stirring occasionally. At the end of cooking, adjust the salt and sprinkle with chopped parsley.
