Scale
- 1 pound gnocchi (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 cup raw or roasted cashews
- 1 cup tikka masala sauce (jarred or homemade)
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
- 1 onion, chopped

- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh cilantro and lime juice for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
