Cook the gnocchi in boiling water according to package directions. Drain, cool, set aside.
Heat 1 tsp oil in a large skillet, and add the onion – cook for a few minutes
Add the garlic, cook until the onion is soft and translucent (4-6 min)
Meanwhile, using olive oil cooking spray, pan fry the gnocchi in a separate skillet until lightly browned
Add the spinach to the skillet with the onion in it, and cook until the spinach defrosts/starts to wilt
Stir in the tomatoes, beans, pepper, basil, Italian seasoning, crushed red pepper and salt to taste – bring to a simmer
Stir in the gnocchi and sprinkle with the mozzarella and parmesan cheese
Cover and cook until the cheese is melted and bubbling, about 3-5 min.
