Caesar's Potato Gnocchi Recommended by Whom You Know!

Over 40 years old, Caesars is a leading pasta company with a rich history of servicing the biggest names in the food business 

Caesar's Pasta Products, a third generation family owned and operated business founded in 1967 that has provided the finest frozen pasta to millions of customers for 42 years,  has announced the addition of a new product line of all natural gluten, wheat free pasta meals.   Whom You Know has tried their products and we are VERY IMPRESSED.  Peachy Deegan is not Italian but if she were, she thinks this line would definitely measure up.

In addition to its growing Organic Pasta line, Caesars is again at the forefront of the food and health industry by introducing its gluten and wheat-free specialty pasta meals that have received rave reviews from consumers for tasting exactly as “traditional Italian food should taste.” Varieties include stuffed shells in marinara sauce, manicotti in marinara sauce, cheese lasagna and vegetable lasagna. Caesars gluten-free meals include pasta noodles made with rice and its perfect texture is tender to the bite. 

“Our family is Caesars Pasta and we work together as a team to stay ahead of all the trends and demands from consumers. Celiac disease and other gastrointestinal issues prohibit many people from enjoying the timeless tradition of an Italian meal and we worked diligently to create great tasting, appealing pasta specialty meals for those on a gluten free diet,” said Ronald Lodato, Sr., Vice President at Caesars Pasta.  “It is really important for consumers to both like the food they eat and to trust it; with our 42 years experience in the pasta industry, people can be assured that we use only the finest ingredients and are true to our brand. It is especially important for consumers to be vigilant with newer companies that label everything organic.”

Here is what the Peachy's Pantry Panel said:

Caesar’s Potato Gnocchi are a perfect meal for our family.  We’re not a gluten-free household, but having a child with other food allergies definitely makes things difficult.  This product is not only gluten free and vegan, it’s also free of egg and dairy, and to us that makes all the difference.   Many frozen past meals have egg in them and as a rule we skip them in favor of the dry, boxed variety.  This Potato Gnocchi, however, meet all of our requirements – allergy-friendly, quick, and tasty!  They take only 2 minutes or so in boiling water.  What’s easier than that?  I unfortunately ruined a batch with some homemade sauce that was questionable, but I can’t blame that on Caesar’s.  

Gnocchi is one of my favorite pasta varieties due to its wonderful doughy texture and chewy-ness.  Caesar's Pasta Specialties gets it just right with their variety of Potato Gnocchis.  I can't emphasize how quick and easy it is to prepare these gnocchis, literally just 3 minutes in a pot of boiling water, strain and they're done.  There are different ways to serve them, I actually prepared them 2 straight days in a row: the first time, they were drizzled with olive oil and tomato sauce; and the second time, I threw them into a chicken and vegetable soup, which became a different variation of chicken and dumpling soup.
 Both methods of preparation yielded delicious and comfort food-like results.  Another plus is the the gnocchis came in a larger size, thus the chewy texture is likelier to stay intact after cooking and the ridges hold the sauce very well.


One of Caesar's newer products are the gnocchi varietals. I tried the potato gnocchi, gluten free, completely free of any animal product. This is another great dish for heartier pasta dish and gnocchi lovers, and can be prepared in as little as three minutes. The potato dumplings are well made, and very homemade looking, and therefore stay together and lock in the nice flavor of the pasta. I am a big gnocchi fan, and I can say that this dish prepared quite well and had a proper al dente consistency. I would recommend the potato gnocchi due to it's ease of preparation and authenticity.

Not only does Caesar's have outstanding products, but also they have an illustrious history.
