About Penne pasta with tomato cream sauce
Penne Pasta with Tomato Cream Sauce is a comforting dish rooted in Italian cuisine. It features tender penne pasta coated in a silky sauce made from ripe, crushed tomatoes, heavy cream, garlic, olive oil, and a hint of Parmesan cheese for added richness. This hearty meal balances creamy and tangy flavors, making it a satisfying choice for pasta lovers. While the dish offers beneficial nutrients from tomatoes, such as vitamin C, potassium, and antioxidants, the heavy cream and cheese contribute notable amounts of saturated fat and calories. Opting for whole-grain penne and moderate portions can enhance its nutritional profile by adding fiber and lowering its glycemic impact. This dish is best enjoyed as part of a balanced diet, pairing it with a fresh salad or steamed vegetables for added nutrition.
