Prepare the Gnocchi with Meat Sauce
In a food processor, puree onion and garlic.
Add onion and garlic to a pot with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Sauté until fragrant, stirring occasionally.
Add meat. Using a potato masher or a wooden spoon, break the meat up until there are no remaining chunks and stir until meat is completely browned.
Once meat is cooked through, add in tomato sauce, tomato paste, and sugar. Stir to incorporate and bring to a boil.
Once sauce reaches a boil, add salt and pepper to taste, and stir to incorporate. Add gnocchi and let cook for at least 3 minutes. The longer it cooks, the more flavor is absorbed from the sauce.
Serve and enjoy!

How strong of a tomato taste does it have? When I make meatballs I add a lot oF brown sugar to help drown out the tomato taste
It has a good amount of tomato products, so I assume it will definitely taste like tomato. If you'd like to tone down the flavor, you certainly can :)
can extra be frozen?
This recipe work with ground white turkey instead of the beef?
Yes, it should be ok.
it took 15 minutes to make a real winner
This was sooo good!! Even without onion and garlic I loved it!
