About Pasta with pesto and peas

Pasta with Pesto and Peas is a vibrant dish rooted in Italian cuisine, celebrated for its rich flavors and wholesome ingredients. This meal features tender pasta coated in a fresh basil pesto, which combines leafy greens, garlic, olive oil, Parmesan cheese, and pine nuts to create a creamy, nutrient-packed sauce. Sweet green peas add a pop of color and natural sweetness, enhancing both taste and texture. Rich in heart-healthy fats from olive oil and pine nuts and offering plant-based protein and fiber from peas, this dish is a nutritious option. However, it can be high in calories and sodium due to Parmesan cheese and oil, so portion control and moderation are key. A perfect blend of simplicity and flavor, Pasta with Pesto and Peas is a delightful choice for a quick, satisfying, and balanced meal.
