About Penne caprese

Penne Caprese is a vibrant Italian-inspired pasta dish that combines the fresh, simple flavors of Mediterranean cuisine. It features al dente penne pasta tossed with ripe cherry tomatoes, creamy mozzarella balls, fragrant fresh basil, and a light drizzle of extra virgin olive oil. Often finished with a touch of balsamic glaze or garlic, this dish is a celebration of wholesome ingredients. Packed with antioxidants from tomatoes, heart-healthy fats from olive oil, and protein and calcium from mozzarella, Penne Caprese offers a balanced and nutrient-dense meal option. However, it is moderately high in carbohydrates due to the pasta base and should be enjoyed in portions that suit your dietary needs. A fresh, flavorful choice for those seeking a meal that's both satisfying and nourishing!
