About Fettuccine with meatballs

Fettuccine with Meatballs is a classic Italian-American dish that combines hearty pasta with savory meatballs in a rich tomato sauce. The fettuccine is a flat, ribbon-like pasta traditionally made from durum wheat, providing a source of carbohydrates for energy. Meatballs, typically prepared with ground beef or pork and seasoned with garlic, parsley, and breadcrumbs, offer protein and iron but can be high in saturated fat depending on the cut of meat used. The tomato-based sauce is rich in vitamins like C and lycopene, contributing antioxidants and supporting heart health. However, the dish can be calorie-dense, especially if topped with cheese or prepared with excess oil. Opting for lean meats, whole-grain pasta, and fresh ingredients can make this dish a more balanced choice while still offering the comforting flavors and textures loved worldwide.
