Prepare gnocchi according to package directions. Set aside when completed.

Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat, until slightly crisp. Discard most of the bacon grease.

Add garlic and thyme leaves, cook for about a minute.

Add gnocchi (drained) to the pan. Stir in the butter until melted.

Add peas, salt and pepper, and mix to combine. Squeeze lemon juice over the top and let the flavors meld. Serve hot!
