About Rigatoni with meat sauce
Rigatoni with Meat Sauce is a classic Italian-American dish that combines hearty pasta with a savory, tomato-based meat sauce. The dish features rigatoni, a tube-shaped pasta with ridges that hold the rich sauce beautifully, and a ground meat mixture, often beef or pork, simmered with tomatoes, garlic, onions, and Italian herbs like basil and oregano. This comforting meal is often topped with grated Parmesan cheese for added flavor. Rigatoni provides a good source of carbohydrates for energy, while the meat contributes protein and iron. However, depending on the preparation, it can be high in saturated fats and sodium, especially if fatty meats or additional salt are used. Opting for whole-grain rigatoni and lean meat, along with a homemade sauce, can make this dish a healthier choice while preserving its satisfying taste and vibrant cultural character.
