Red Sauce Ziti is a classic Italian-American dish that combines tender ziti pasta with a rich tomato-based marinara sauce. The sauce often features garlic, onions, olive oil, herbs like basil and oregano, and sometimes a touch of sugar for balance. Many recipes include a layer of melted mozzarella or grated Parmesan cheese, creating a gooey, comforting finish. While the dish provides a hearty serving of carbohydrates from the pasta, it also delivers antioxidants like lycopene from the tomatoes. Olive oil adds healthy fats, and herbs contribute flavor without extra salt. However, its nutritional profile can vary based on the amount of cheese and oil used, which could increase calorie and fat content. Red Sauce Ziti works well as a satisfying main course or a side dish and offers versatility, as additional vegetables or lean proteins can be incorporated for a more balanced meal.
