About Espagueti verde

Espagueti Verde, a staple of Mexican cuisine, features spaghetti coated in a creamy, vibrant green sauce made from ingredients such as poblano peppers, cream or sour cream, garlic, and cilantro. This dish offers a flavorful twist on traditional pasta recipes, combining smoky and mildly spicy poblano peppers with herby notes. While it delivers a rich and satisfying taste, its nutritional profile depends on preparation. Poblano peppers are low in calories and offer vitamins A and C, along with antioxidants. However, the use of cream or sour cream adds saturated fat and calories, making moderation key. Espagueti Verde is a versatile dish that can be paired with lean proteins or vegetable sides to create a balanced meal. It’s a delightful representation of Mexican culinary creativity, blending familiar ingredients into a comforting, indulgent experience.
