About Penne with meat sauce
Penne with Meat Sauce is a classic Italian-inspired dish featuring tender penne pasta coated in a savory tomato-based meat sauce. The sauce is typically prepared with ground beef or pork, onions, garlic, diced tomatoes, and a blend of aromatic herbs like basil and oregano. Often enhanced with a dash of olive oil and grated Parmesan cheese, this hearty meal offers a satisfying balance of protein, carbohydrates, and essential vitamins from the tomatoes. While the protein in the meat supports muscle repair and the pasta provides energy-boosting complex carbs, the dish can be high in saturated fats depending on the meat and cheese content. Opting for lean meat and whole-grain penne can improve its nutritional profile, adding fiber for digestive health. Penne with Meat Sauce is a comforting choice for those seeking a flavorful, filling meal grounded in Mediterranean cuisine.
