To make this chicken gnocchi soup, I started by dropping a dab of margarine into a large saucepan on the stove and turning the heat to medium high.

Then I dumped some diced onions and diced celery into the pot and cooked them, stirring occasionally until the onions just started to brown.

Then I added some chicken broth and water to the pot and increased the heat to bring the liquid to a boil.

Once the liquid was boiling I added the gnocchi to the pot and reduced the heat back to medium high. 

I cooked the gnocchi until they floated to the surface of the liquid and then continued cooking them for an additional four minutes.

Then I added some cream of chicken soup, light cream, sage and pepper to the pot.

In a small bowl I combined some water and cornstarch until the cornstarch was completely dissolved.

I used 18% cream, but anything around 20% will work fine.
