I used canned peas and carrots instead because thats what i had and wanted to use up some of my canned goods, i added them in the same time as the gnocchi so it wouldn’t get mushy, i added the gnocchi the last 30 minutes basically right before I wanted dinner actually. Because my chicken was done way before dinner time might of started it too early idk 🤷‍♀️, this is so good 😊.
