About Pasta with tuna and cheese
Pasta with Tuna and Cheese is a quick and comforting dish inspired by Mediterranean and Italian cuisines. It typically combines cooked pasta, canned tuna, shredded or grated cheese, and a touch of olive oil or a light cream sauce. Additional ingredients may include garlic, parsley, capers, or lemon juice for extra flavor. High in protein thanks to the tuna, this dish also provides essential omega-3 fatty acids that support heart and brain health. The cheese adds calcium and a creamy texture, though moderation is key to manage saturated fat intake. Opting for whole-grain pasta boosts fiber content, aiding digestion and maintaining steady energy levels. While a simple and nutritious option, the sodium content from canned tuna and cheese should be monitored for those on a low-sodium diet. This dish strikes a balance between satisfying comfort food and a wholesome, protein-packed meal.
