About Rice with tomato sauce
Rice with tomato sauce is a simple yet flavorful dish, popular in various cuisines including Mediterranean, Latin American, and African. It typically consists of cooked rice combined with a rich tomato-based sauce made from tomatoes, onions, garlic, olive oil, and seasonings like herbs and spices. Variations may include vegetables or proteins like beans or chicken for added nutrition. A rich source of carbohydrates, rice provides energy, while tomatoes contribute vitamins like A and C, along with antioxidants such as lycopene. When prepared with whole grain rice, the dish gains extra fiber, supporting digestion and heart health. Olive oil adds healthy fats, but excessive oil or salty sauces can increase calorie and sodium content. Overall, Rice with Tomato Sauce can be a nutritious choice when balanced with vegetables and lean proteins, making it a versatile and satisfying option for many diets.
