Rigatoni Al Ragu is a classic Italian pasta dish originating from the rich culinary traditions of Italy. It features rigatoni, a tube-shaped pasta designed for holding hearty sauces, paired with a savory ragu made from slow-cooked ground meat, tomatoes, aromatics like onion and garlic, and a medley of herbs. The dish is often topped with freshly grated Parmesan cheese for added flavor. Rigatoni Al Ragu can be a good source of protein when prepared with lean meat and offers energy from the carbohydrates in the pasta. However, it may be high in calories and saturated fat depending on the type and amount of meat and cheese used. To make it healthier, whole-grain rigatoni can be substituted for refined pasta, and the sauce can incorporate more vegetables for added fiber and nutrients. It is a hearty and satisfying meal rooted in Italian comfort food traditions.
