About Pasta with olive oil and lime zest

Pasta with olive oil and lime zest is a simple yet flavorful dish that highlights the beauty of Mediterranean cuisine. This dish combines al dente pasta with high-quality extra virgin olive oil, freshly grated lime zest, and a pinch of salt. Often garnished with herbs like parsley or basil, it boasts vibrant, citrusy notes that complement the richness of the olive oil. Olive oil is a heart-healthy fat known for its antioxidant properties and potential to lower bad cholesterol. Lime zest adds a boost of vitamin C and a refreshing tang. However, as with most pasta dishes, moderation is key, as it can be calorie-dense depending on portion size and additional toppings like cheese or nuts. Light and zesty, this recipe is perfect for those seeking an easy, health-conscious meal that celebrates natural ingredients.
