Penne Pasta with Tomato Sauce and Green Beans is a classic Italian-inspired dish that combines simple, wholesome ingredients. It features al dente penne pasta tossed in a vibrant, tangy tomato sauce crafted from ripe tomatoes, garlic, olive oil, and fragrant herbs like basil and oregano. Tender green beans add a crisp texture and a dose of fiber, vitamins, and minerals. This dish is a well-balanced meal, providing complex carbohydrates for energy, plant-based nutrients, and minimal saturated fats when paired with olive oil. For added richness, optional grated Parmesan cheese offers calcium but also increases sodium and fat content. Low in processed ingredients, this meal is a heart-healthy and flavorful choice, especially if prepared using whole-grain penne for extra fiber. Its simplicity and nutritional value make it a satisfying option for vegetarians or anyone seeking a lighter pasta dish grounded in Mediterranean cuisine.
