Spaghetti and Meatballs is a classic Italian-American dish that combines tender pasta with savory, seasoned meatballs, served in a rich tomato-based sauce. Originating from Italian immigrant communities in the United States, this hearty meal has become a global favorite. Traditional spaghetti is made from durum wheat pasta, paired with meatballs crafted from ground beef, pork, or a combination, often mixed with breadcrumbs, egg, herbs, and spices. The tomato sauce typically includes garlic, olive oil, herbs, and occasionally vegetables for added flavor. While the dish is filling and provides protein and carbohydrates, it can be high in calories, fat, and sodium, especially if prepared with fatty meats or heavy cheeses. Using whole-grain pasta, lean meats, and reduced-sodium sauce can enhance its nutritional profile. Spaghetti and Meatballs is a delicious comfort food that can fit into a balanced diet with mindful ingredient choices.
