About Pasta and tomatoe sauce
Pasta with tomato sauce is a classic dish rooted in Italian cuisine, celebrated worldwide for its simplicity and flavor. Typically made with durum wheat-based pasta and a sauce crafted from ripe tomatoes, olive oil, garlic, and aromatic herbs like basil and oregano, it offers a satisfying and nutritious meal option. The tomatoes provide a rich source of vitamins A and C, potassium, and lycopene, an antioxidant associated with heart health and reduced inflammation. The olive oil contributes heart-healthy monounsaturated fats, while the herbs add beneficial antioxidants and flavor without added calories. However, traditional white pasta may lack fiber compared to whole-grain varieties, and some versions of the dish may be high in added sugar or salt. Opting for whole-grain pasta and minimizing processed ingredients can enhance its nutritional value while preserving its irresistible taste and cultural authenticity.
