Faced with the task of creating a delicious, filling meal without meat, River chose to make homemade potato gnocchi in a pesto sauce.  This is a recipe that the family will be making again.   Much more comfortable with his task, Terran stepped up the pasta game and crafted a multi-layer meat lasagna with sausage and ground beef.  He opted for meat from grass-fed, organic sources to create this family favorite.     Vegan Pesto Gnocchi  Ingredients 2 large russet potatoes 1 tsp salt 2 tbsp olive oil 2 1\/2 cups all purpose flour, more as needed Pesto Ingredients 2 cups fresh basil 2 tbsp pine nuts \u00bd cup olive oil 1-2 cloves of garlic Directions Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Prick potatoes with fork and bake for 45-60 minutes, or until tender when poked with fork. Allow potatoes to cool, peel, and mash thoroughly (or use a potato ricer, like we did) Combine mashed potato, salt, olive oil, and flour in a large mixing bowl. It is recommended that you use your hands to ensure that the ingredients are fully combined. Form the mixture into a ball, using small amounts of flour as necessary to alleviate any overly sticky texture.   Take a small section of dough, and leave the rest in a covered bowl.  Form small balls of dough of equal size.  slide the balls on upside-down fork with your thumb to create the traditional grooved gnocchi shape. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.  Cook half the gnocchi until they\u2019ve floated for one minute (approximately five minutes). Remove from the water. Repeat with the second half of the gnocchi. Combine pesto ingredients in food processor Warm pesto and pour over cooked gnocchi. Enjoy!
