 Sirloin Gnocchi Poutine with Fried Cheeseballs and Mushroom Gravy -- From Gate to Plate

I’m sure you’ve heard the chatter… January has been dubbed National Sunday Supper Month and the Famous Idaho Potato has been a great sponsor for the occasion. On January 10th, National Sunday Supper Day, a select group of Sunday Supper bloggers showcased a variety of “think outside the box” poutine recipes. I didn’t get chosen, but I knew I just had to participate! I mean who could beat a chance at winning a contest right?

Sirloin Gnocchi Poutine with Fried Cheeseballs and Mushroom Gravy -- From Gate to PlateHave you ever had a classic poutine? It consists of french fries, cheese curds and gravy. Well I’m breaking outside the box.. a lot… while still keeping the theme.

Gnocchi has always been my favorite Italian dish… usually with a delicate cheese sauce covering it. Well, that’s when I knew I just had to use Gnocchi as my base. Then… that’s when the toppings get really delicious.

Sirloin steak… isn’t that a gorgeous steak?! Produced right here on our farm. Perfect Angus steak!

Gnocchi + Website Redesign

January 18, 2016 by Lauren 1 Comment

Light and fluffy potato pillows, also known as Gnocchi await your favorite sauce!

Gnocchi -- From Gate to Plate

Before we start talking about Gnocchi let me talk about the new site!

My, oh, my!! Yes, you’re in the correct place. From Gate to Plate has gone through a rebrand and I’m loving it!! What do you think?! I have to give credit to Laura at PixelMeDesigns. She did a fabulous job! My favorite part of the new site is simply the layout. I love how clean and bright the new site looks! 🙂 Why don’t you take a tour and let me know in the comments what your favorite feature is compared to the old site! 

Next on my agenda for FGTP is to work on my food photography. If you’ve been following me since I started or even after the first year, you are sure to notice that I’m improving. I’m beyond impressed with my growth from a dark one bedroom apartment to a gorgeous, bright 5 bedroom home I share with C. My photography skills are growing and I’ve even expanded to taking portraits as well… those are much better than my food photography skills, I promise. Ohh, and maybe I should stop waiting until the last moment to post and photograph and work on more of a schedule. It just has to be the procrastinator in me… just has to be! 🙂 

So lets get to the meat… or fluffy pillows of goodness that you’re really here for. Gnocchi has been my all-time absolute, heaven on earth, favorite food since I visited Italy. It was back in 2008 a group from my community college and a neighboring college gathered a few culinary students and we flew to Italy for a little shy of two weeks. First stop after we got off the plane in Florence… Lucca. That’s where our tour guide and fabulous Chef Paolo lives. We had cooking demonstrations and tours lined up for us the entire time we were in the Tuscany region. Such a fabulous experience and I hope to one day go back. Now, my college goes to Spain. I’m still trying to convince Chef G that I need to go along as a chaperone! 

Anyway, after what seemed like a full 24 hours of flying, we were starving once we got to the hotel and restaurant in Lucca. We sat down at chef’s restaurant and I ordered up this amazing Cheesy Gnocchi. I had never had Gnocchi before then and let me tell you I had been missing out. It was seriously light and fluffy, cheesy, and simply the most amazing thing to hit my taste buds! Ever since that day, when asked what my favorite dish consists of… Gnocchi has been the answer!

Gnocchi -- From Gate to Plate

Sadly, I must admit I hadn’t made any sort of Gnocchi since I graduated from IHCC. I just hadn’t had the kitchen space that I like, but that’s all changed now because I have a very spacious kitchen!! <3. Over the years I had purchased that dried stuff that comes in a bag you find in the pasta isle in Wal-Mart or Target, but I cooked it, dressed it with a cheesy sauce.. and disposed of it. Yuck! I couldn’t even bring myself to eat it because it was awful. Nothing, absolutely nothing like the real homemade stuff. Seriously. If you’re a fan of that boughten crap, you will never want to go back to it after you make your own. I promise!

Everyone always makes Gnocchi out to be something hard to make. It’s not hard, just time consuming. You can’t really stop the process once you’ve started. You just can’t. After you boil or bake your potatoes, you must finish and see the process out. It’s really not hard at all, I promise… so totally worth it in the end too!

Prep Time
30 min
Cook Time
1 hr
Ingredients
  1. 1 pound Famous Idaho Potatoes
  2. 3 1/2 ounces all-purpose flour
  3. 1 egg
  4. 2 teaspoon salt
  5. 1/2 teaspoon pepper
Instructions
  1. Place the potatoes (washed, whole and with peels) in a large pot and cover with salted water.
  2. Bring to a boil, simmer and cook until tender (easily pierced with a fork or knife) about 50-60 minutes.
  3. Remove potatoes from water. When cool enough to handle (I place in a towel so I can handle them very quickly), peel and place in a rice or food mill.
  4. Combine all ingredients, mixing just until combined. Dough will be a little tacky, but that's okay it'll come out of it when you dump onto floured surface.
  5. Turn dough out onto a floured surface and roll into a roughly 12-inch log.
  6. Cut into three equal portions.
  7. Gently roll each portion into a long log about 3/4-inch thick. Cut each log into 3/4 to 1 inch pieces.
  8. Now you may use a knife to roll the gnocchi on or use a gnocchi board or leave as is.
  9. Place dough on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet covered in plastic wrap for up to one day OR place in a large pot of boiling salt water to cook just until floating about 2 minutes each.
  10. Serve with your favorite sauce!
Notes
  1. **The quicker you're able to peel and place in ricer the easier it is to turn**
  2. **I mix all ingredients together in my KitchenAid, but you can mix in a bowl by hand**

Creamy Loaded Baked Potato and Ham Soup -- From Gate to Plate #SoupSaturday

Creamy Loaded Baked Potato and Ham Soup #SoupSaturday

November 21, 2015 by Lauren 1 Comment

Creamy Loaded Baked Potato and Ham Soup is the perfect comfort food for a snowy evening! 

Creamy Loaded Baked Potato and Ham Soup -- From Gate to Plate #SoupSaturday

Welcome to Week #3 of my edition of #SoupSaturday. If you’re just joining in let me introduce you to what I’ve started doing! Here is Southern Iowa, it starts getting pretty dang nippy outside in November and what better way than to enjoy a nice bowl of soup every Saturday?!

Well…. bad news. Snow started falling from the sky yesterday…. yes that’s horrible, because it means it gets super cold and it makes caring for the cows that much harder. Ugh. I used to love winter because it meant shorter days, warm soup, and snowmobiling. Now days, I just plain ol’ hate it. It’s nasty stuff. The devil. You get the point, right?! What’s your thoughts on snow and winter?!

Regardless of how you feel about the white stuff…. this Creamy Loaded Baked Potato and Ham Soup is sure to hit the spot. I whipped it up for the Mr. for when he got home from the sale barn after the big calf sale. Spending all day in the weather sure takes a toll on you so a tasty hot soup is good for the belly! 

You can whip this soup up on short notice as it takes less than 30 minutes! Also…No ham, but you have bacon? Substitute. It’s that simple! Pork is pork isn’t it??

Easy Cheesy Egg Breakfast Bake with Potatoes and Sausage -- From Gate to Plate #SundaySupper

Easy Cheesy Egg Breakfast Bake with Potatoes and Sausage #SundaySupper

November 15, 2015 by Lauren 23 Comments

An easy, budget friendly, crowd pleasure! Easy Cheesy Egg Breakfast Bake with Potatoes and Sausage!

Easy Cheesy Egg Breakfast Bake with Potatoes and Sausage -- From Gate to Plate #SundaySupper

We’re back for another #SundaySupper!! This week’s theme is Budget-Friendly… because who doesn’t love a great meal that doesn’t cost a lot to make?!

Okay, don’t hate on the horrid pictures because seriously…. I have a very hard time photographing things in a casserole dish… ugh! It may not look good, but it sure tastes good!

On the farm, eggs and sausage are two very easy ingredients to get ahold of. We raise our own chickens, too many chickens ha, and whenever we need sausage we can get a whole hog from a neighbor or go pick one up at the sale barn right up the road. Which literally, C’s family owns and operates it so obviously it wouldn’t be too hard to get a hog. 

If you don’t have those kind of luxuries, eggs and sausage are pretty cheap in the store… as well as potatoes. That leaves this dish at less than $1.00 per serving! Not only is this dish cheap to make, but it’s also very easy to make as well. Best of both worlds in my opinion, especially with the busy lifestyle most of us live!

Beef Pot Pie with Herbed Biscuits -- From Gate to Plate #SundaySupper

Beef Pot Pie with Herbed Biscuits #SundaySupper

October 25, 2015 by Lauren 33 Comments

Comfort food at it’s finest. This satisfying Beef Pot Pie with Herbed Biscuits will warm you up on a cool fall evening!

Beef Pot Pie with Herbed Biscuits -- From Gate to Plate #SundaySupper

Here in Iowa, fall has officially set in on us. Temperatures dipping down into the low 30’s… we haven’t had a killing frost yet so that’s good! Combines are still running as they harvest the last of the corn and beans. Tractor and discs are following behind working the ground for cover crops or for next year. Either way, it’s busy in our area as well as our lives.

Not only have farmers been in the fields, but we’ve also been in the pastures. It’s that time again when we’re weaning our spring calves and they’re hitting the feed yards so in about 10-12 months they can be hitting your plates. That’s what I live to do… raise beef to put on your plates! That’s why when T.R from Gluten Free Crumbly chose this warming themed event for #SundaySupper I was super excited to put a spin on one of my blogs most popular recipes, Chicken Pot Pie with Biscuits. 

Pot pies seem to be an excellent comfort food during the cooler months and beef is very plentiful in our freezer due to raising our own… so why not put the two together… right?! I know it’s nothing new, but a pot pie with biscuits instead of pastry is what I go for. These biscuits are seasoned with Italian Seasoning which I feel compliment the beef very well. Did I mention they’re super easy to make and would be great by themselves as well? Well… I just did! 🙂

Horseradish Au Gratin Potatoes -- From Gate to Plate -- FoodieExtravaganza

Horseradish Au Gratin Potatoes #FoodieExtravaganza

August 5, 2015 by Lauren 15 Comments

Add a little kick the next time you make Au Gratin Potatoes and leave your guests wanting more with these Horseradish Au Gratin Potatoes!

Horseradish Au Gratin Potatoes -- From Gate to Plate -- FoodieExtravaganza

Welcome to another fabulous month of #FoodieExtravaganza!! Foodie Extravaganza is where bloggers come together and celebrate their love for food and food holidays! Did you know there is at least one food assigned to each day of the year to celebrate that food? Kathleen from Fearlessly Creative Mammas is our host this month and since she is from Idaho, she picked potatoes. All of the recipes will feature potatoes in one form or another.

Don’t get me started on potatoes. Seriously. Don’t.

Around here we’re just meat and potato eaters. Who needs a veggie?? Well… in the summer we do throw veggies into our meals, but any other time it’s just meat and potatoes. Can anyone else relate? 

Au Gratin Potatoes or as some, like my mother, call them Scalloped Potatoes are very popular around here. Toss a creamy cheese sauce over potatoes and slap in the oven… delicious! One of our favorites, especially when we use leftover ham. Like I said… don’t get me started on potatoes because we love them!

You’re probably wondering how I managed to think of adding horseradish to my Au Gratin Potatoes right?! Well… the truth be told… I have no idea, but I do know that it’s going to be my secret ingredient next time I make them. When I first took a bite, I was like, “Wow, I love it!” and the second time… same thing… but if you didn’t know the horseradish was in it you wouldn’t know what you were eating and it just keeps you guessing. I only wanted enough that I could taste that it was in potatoes… not that it was going to over power them. Mainly because the man, C, don’t like horseradish. Boo!!! He doesn’t like tomatoes either… like seriously what am I going to do about this?!

C still ate them and said they were good… so I guess that’s a start in the right direction!! 🙂 

So next time you’re wanting to toss some Au Gratin Potatoes in the oven… add some horseradish into your sauce and let everyone guess what you added because these Horseradish Au Gratin Potatoes are here to stay for me!! Serve them up beside a nice steak and you’re in business!!

Give them a whirl and let me know what you think! 🙂 (I only made an 8×8 dish because I didn’t want leftovers, but you can easily multiply this recipe to fit a 9×13 to serve more people!)

Bacon Cheeseburger Soup -- From Gate to Plate #10DaysofTailgate #Giveaway

Bacon Cheeseburger Soup #10DaysofTailgate + Giveaway

September 26, 2014 by Lauren 15 Comments

Incredibly delicious. This Bacon Cheeseburger Soup is sure to get the attention of  your tailgating crowd and keep you warm on those chilly days at the stadium – or anytime! 

Bacon Cheeseburger Soup -- From Gate to Plate #10DaysofTailgate #Giveaway

Welcome to Day #7 of #10DaysofTailgate! If you’re just joining us let me tell you few things. We have nearly two dozen bloggers with over one hundred recipes scheduled to inspire you through an entire tailgating season. Think chicken wings, skewers, sweet nibbles, and cocktails. The event runs September 20th through September 30th. Just remember: your fork does not go into your monitor…no matter how much you might want to taste some of these dishes. Okay? Get ready…get set… BREAK!

I always enjoy a good burger while tailgating, but sometimes when the weather is down right chilly you just want a nice bowl of soup to warm you up. That’s where this Bacon Cheeseburger Soup comes in very handy! You get all the goodies of a sandwich right in your bowl. 

Bacon Cheeseburger Soup -- From Gate to Plate #10DaysofTailgate #Giveaway

You can make this soup in about 40 minutes and it’s easily transferred to a crock pot for keeping it warm or reheating once you get to your tailgate location.

Fried Potatoes with Bacon and Sauteed Sugar Snap Peas -- From Gate to Plate #BaconMonth #putsomepiginit

Fried Potatoes with Bacon and Sauteed Sugar Snap Peas #BaconMonth

August 10, 2014 by Lauren Leave a Comment

Fried Potatoes with Bacon and Sauteed Sugar Snap Peas. Need I say more?

Fried Potatoes with Bacon and Sauteed Sugar Snap Peas -- From Gate to Plate #BaconMonth #putsomepiginit

Welcome to another recipe brought to you for #BaconMonth. For this recipe, I’m going very simple… keeping the comfort food level at a high also 🙂 

Around our house, I’m not gonna lie we’re more of a meat and potato kinda lovers. Even though we grow lots of veggies, the veggies get pushed to the back burner when we’re looking for something to eat. Luckily, with this dish you get it all though! 

There’s not much to say about this dish. Easy, fresh, and delicious. 

Fried potatoes with bacon. Could it really get much better than that? 

I don’t really think so, but then again I could live off of bacon. 

Seriously.

Every day I could eat bacon.

For the rest of my life and never get tired of it! 

Don’t hide it… you know you could too. 🙂 

There’s no real “recipe” for this dish. It’s just potatoes, bacon, onion, peas. Season with salt and pepper. Serve it up! Ohh and to keep some more bacon love in the dish… I fried the potatoes and sauteed the onions and peas in bacon grease. Delicious, but you don’t have to! You can use butter, olive oil, whatever you prefer.

Garlic Dill Roasted Potato Wedges -- From Gate to Plate #NationalGarlicDay

Garlic Dill Roasted Potato Wedges #NationalGarlicDay {Giveaway}

April 19, 2014 by Lauren 21 Comments

Garlic Dill Roasted Potato Wedges… no dipping sauce needed. Period.

Garlic Dill Roasted Potato Wedges -- From Gate to Plate #NationalGarlicDay

It’s no secret that I’m a huge garlic lover. I love the smell and most of all the flavor. Any chance I get, I’m adding garlic! So what if it makes your breathe stinky for a little bit. It’s got some other benefits too 🙂 especially this time of year when I’m wanting to go mushroom hunting. Believe it or not, the scent of garlic comes out in your skin and those dang yucky ticks that I’m allergic to don’t like that smell! 

Given my garlic obsession, when I heard that a group of bloggers were getting together to celebrate National Garlic Day I had to jump in. We’re talking all sorts of garlic! Yes, please!! Don’t have to ask me twice. 

Garlic Dill Roasted Potato Wedges -- From Gate to Plate #NationalGarlicDay

Another one of my not so hidden favorites belongs to the lovely starch family… you know those potatoes that I can’t seem to stay away from. So why not bring the two together right? Throw in some dill weed and it’s pretty much deliciousness all in a mouthful. 

These Garlic Dill Roasted Potato Wedges are super easy and the perfect combination with a burger. Another awesome thing is that these wedges need absolutely NO dipping sauce. I’m a huge ranch fan when it comes to my fries and I tried it with these and it was a no go… seriously no dipping sauce required.

Bacon Potato Pizza

March 10, 2014 by Lauren 5 Comments

If you’re looking for a slice of comfort food heaven then this Bacon Potato Pizza is a must!

Bacon & Potato Pizza -- From Gate to Plate #comfortfood #pizza #marchmadness

March Madness is fast approaching.. as in next week the 18th and I’m super excited! I love college hoops. Granted…. I haven’t been able to watch many games this season, but still I love hoops!

The excitement of the game and the love the players have is something that you don’t really find in the NBA. Granted there’s those who play for the love of the game in the NBA instead of for the money, but in college…. it’s more for the love of the game. I love the nailbiters… absolutely love a close game! 

Another plus to March Madness is the brackets. I mean… seriously… I think last year was a complete fail… Upsets and busted brackets galore. Hopefully this year will be better. It’s all fun though no matter what! 

But anyways..

So is March Madness a little like Super Bowl Sunday for some of you!? For me… not so much, but I still love to enjoy great food during the Championship game! Perhaps more of an indoor style food instead of the BBQ and sliders that are the norm during football season?!

Well you’re in luck because I have brought you just that. How about a big ol’ slice of heaven? This Bacon Potato Pizza is now one of my favorites, but then again I’m a potato junky. 

Bacon & Potato Pizza -- From Gate to Plate #comfortfood #pizza #marchmadness

A par-baked pizza crust, with mashed potatoes smothered on top instead of a sauce. Then top it with crispy bacon, sauteed onions and peppers and a gigantic pile of mozzarella and cheddar cheese?! Serve it up with sour cream and call it the ultimate comfort food. But that’s just my opinion I guess. 

Bacon & Potato Pizza -- From Gate to Plate #comfortfood #pizza #marchmadness

The pizza dough is homemade and only takes 10 minutes before you throw it in the oven to bake! Super easy and fast rising dough. The crust takes 10 minutes to brown and then throw the potatoes, bacon and cheeses on it… Bake for another 10-15 minutes and now you’re all set and ready for game time!! 

So get that oven cranked up and get your game food on with this Bacon Potato Pizza!
