Ingredients
For the Gnocchi:
Onion: 1 large, minced finely
Garlic: 2-3 cloves, minced
Cherry Tomatoes: 1 cup, halved
Store-Bought Gnocchi: 1 package (approximately 500g)
Olive Oil: For sautéing
Salt and Pepper: To taste
Optional Additions:
Fresh Herbs: Parsley, basil, or your favorite herbs
Cream: A splash for a richer sauce
Grated Cheese: Parmesan or a vegan alternative

Instructions
1. Preparing the Ingredients:
Start by finely mincing the onion and garlic. Halve the cherry tomatoes and set them aside. Have your gnocchi ready to add, as this dish cooks quickly.
2. Sauté the Onion:
In a large skillet or sauté pan, heat a generous amount of olive oil over medium heat. Once the oil is shimmering, add the minced onion. Sauté the onion for about 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it becomes translucent and starts to soften. This step builds the base flavor of the dish.
