One-pan creamy gnocchi and veggies

Melt butter in a pan, add the gnocchi and toss to coat; cook until some are golden, not too dark.

Add frozen mixed vegetables and cook over medium heat four or five minutes.

Add a cup of heavy cream and bring to a simmer; add lemon zest.

Simmer two to three minutes to finish the vegetables and thicken to a spoonable sauce; stir in Parmesan.

Add a little lemon juice, season with salt and pepper, kill the heat and finish with fresh ground black pepper.
