Prepare the gnocchi by boiling a pot of water and placing the gnocchi in the water. Once about 6 or so start to float, drain the water or remove the gnocchi with a slotted spoon.
While you heat the water, prepare the sauce by placing the olive oil and crushed garlic into a large oven-safe pan. Saute for about 1 to 2 minutes before adding the crushed tomatoes.
