About Pasta with green sauce and zucchini

Pasta with green sauce and zucchini is a vibrant dish inspired by Mediterranean and Italian cuisines, blending wholesome ingredients with bold flavors. The green sauce often features nutrient-packed greens like spinach, basil, or parsley, combined with olive oil, garlic, and nuts like pine nuts or walnuts for creaminess and depth. Zucchini slices, sautéed or roasted, add a mild sweetness and tender texture, complementing the pasta and sauce beautifully. This dish is rich in vitamins A, C, and K from the greens and zucchini, while olive oil provides heart-healthy fats. Whole-grain or legume-based pasta can enhance its fiber content, making it a more filling and nutritious option. However, traditional versions with white pasta or heavy cream may be higher in refined carbs and calories. For a balanced version, it’s best served with lean protein and moderate use of oils or cheese.
