About Penne pasta with shrimp and tomato sauce

Penne Pasta with Shrimp and Tomato Sauce is a delicious Italian-inspired dish featuring tender shrimp, al dente penne pasta, and a rich tomato-based sauce infused with garlic, onion, and herbs like basil and oregano. Often garnished with a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley, this dish is a flavorful combination of seafood and classic Italian flavors. Packed with lean protein from shrimp and the antioxidants of tomatoes, it offers a nutritious option when prepared with whole-grain pasta to boost fiber content. However, portions should be mindful of calorie intake, as the sauce may include olive oil and cheese, which add fats. Low in saturated fat and high in omega-3 from shrimp, this dish balances indulgence and health, making it a great choice for a wholesome and satisfying meal.
