About Rigatoni with tomato sauce and squash

Rigatoni with Tomato Sauce and Squash is a hearty pasta dish rooted in Italian cuisine, showcasing the vibrant, comforting flavors of Mediterranean cooking. This dish features tender rigatoni pasta coated in a rich tomato sauce infused with garlic, olive oil, and herbs like basil or oregano. Roasted or sautéed squash, such as zucchini or butternut, adds a subtle sweetness and nutrient boost, including dietary fiber, vitamin C, and antioxidants. Olive oil, a staple of Italian cuisine, enhances the healthy fats in the dish, while the tomato sauce provides vitamin A and lycopene, which support heart health and immunity. While the dish can be calorie-heavy depending on portion size and added cheese, choosing whole-grain pasta or minimizing cheese can enhance its nutritional profile. Rigatoni with Tomato Sauce and Squash offers a delicious balance of flavor and nourishment, perfect for those seeking a wholesome yet satisfying meal.
