Roasted Tomato Gnocchi Salad

Let’s just forget the fact that tomatoes aren’t in season and I’ve effectively outed myself as a non farm-to-table type of girl. A locavore I am not.  Along with that I’m not  going green either when food is involved.  Honestly, I will drive to LA to for my favorite...
