Pesto and Mozzarella Pasta is a classic dish inspired by Italian cuisine, combining the rich flavors of basil pesto, creamy mozzarella, and tender pasta. Typically made with durum wheat pasta, fresh mozzarella, and a vibrant pesto sauce consisting of basil, olive oil, Parmesan cheese, pine nuts, and garlic, the dish offers a balance of hearty and indulgent ingredients. While the olive oil and pine nuts provide heart-healthy fats and antioxidants, the cheese contributes protein and calcium. However, the dish can be high in calories and saturated fat if consumed in large portions or loaded with extra cheese. It’s best enjoyed as part of a balanced meal alongside fresh vegetables or a leafy salad. Perfectly satisfying and aromatic, Pesto and Mozzarella Pasta is both a comforting and nutrient-rich choice for pasta enthusiasts.
