Instructions:

1. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the ground beef. Cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.

2. Add the diced celery, bell pepper, and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the veggies are slightly softened.

3. Stir in the heavy cream and bring it to a simmer. Let it cook for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened.

4. Add the cooked gnocchi to the skillet and toss everything together to coat the gnocchi in the creamy sauce.

5. Stir in the grated parmesan cheese and mix until melted and well combined.

6. Add the spinach leaves and cherry tomatoes to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the spinach wilts and the tomatoes soften.

7. Season the dish with dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and pepper. Stir well to incorporate the flavors.

8. Serve the creamy beef and gnocchi skillet hot, garnished with extra parmesan cheese if desired.

Special Tips or Variations:

- Feel free to add other vegetables like mushrooms or zucchini for extra flavor and nutrients.

- For a lighter version, you can use ground turkey or chicken instead of beef.

- Adjust the herbs and seasonings to suit your taste preferences.
