Noodles & Co has added two cauliflower gnocchi dishes to its menu: Cauliflower Gnocchi Rosa and Cauliflower Gnocchi with Roasted Garlic Cream, according to a company press release. The dishes have half the carbs of traditional pasta, are gluten-sensitive and contain a full serving of veggies. Following two years of testing and refining our artisanal Cauliflower Gnocchi recipe, I am thrilled to offer our guests these satisfying and healthy dishes that they can only get at Noodles, Nick Graff, executive chef and vice president of culinary at Noodles & Company said in the release. Gnocchi is a classic Italian pasta that I have long enjoyed, and we ve elevated it from a dish that most people view as an occasional indulgence and transformed it into a healthy and flavorful option that our guests will feel good about eating any day.

For more than 25 years, Noodles & Company has been serving popular noodle dishes, such as our best-selling Wisconsin Mac & Cheese, as well as new ones we can t wait for customers to discover for the first time, like our Spicy Korean Beef Noodles. Innovation is at the core of our brand, and we have gone from innovating bold flavors to innovating the noodle itself. With the introduction of our Zoodle in 2018, and our Cauliflower Rigatoni in 2019, we ve made it possible for almost every dietary lifestyle to enjoy pasta, and now with our latest addition to the menu, we re taking it even further with Cauliflower Gnocchi.
