03 - 1 cup baby spinach leaves
04 - 1/2 cup cooked butternut squash, diced
05 - 1/2 cup cremini mushrooms, sliced

# Directions:

01 - Cook the gnocchi according to package directions. Drain thoroughly and set aside.
02 - In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Add the chopped fresh sage and minced garlic. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until the mixture is fragrant.

05 - Gently warm the flour tortillas in a dry skillet over low heat or in a microwave until they become pliable and easy to roll.
06 - Evenly distribute the gnocchi mixture among the warmed tortillas. Sprinkle each portion generously with grated Parmesan cheese.
07 - Fold in the sides of each tortilla and then roll them tightly from the bottom up, creating a secure wrap.
08 - For an enhanced texture, optionally toast the assembled wraps in a dry skillet over medium heat for 1-2 minutes per side, until golden brown and slightly crisp.
