About Clams in tomato sauce

Clams in Tomato Sauce is a flavorful dish that draws inspiration from Mediterranean and coastal cuisines. It features tender clams simmered in a rich tomato-based sauce infused with garlic, onion, olive oil, and herbs like parsley or basil. This dish is typically served as a main course or paired with pasta, rice, or crusty bread. Clams are a great source of lean protein, vitamins B12 and C, iron, and omega-3 fatty acids, contributing to heart health and overall nutrition. The tomato sauce provides antioxidants like lycopene, which support immune health. Olive oil adds heart-healthy fats, while garlic offers potential anti-inflammatory benefits. However, sodium levels can be high depending on added salt or canned ingredients. This dish is a delicious, nutrient-rich option that’s best enjoyed fresh and in moderation for a balanced diet.
