Spaghetti with spaghetti sauce is a classic Italian-inspired dish featuring pasta and a savory tomato-based sauce. Traditional spaghetti is made from durum wheat semolina, offering a good source of carbohydrates for energy. Spaghetti sauce typically includes tomatoes, garlic, onions, olive oil, and herbs like basil and oregano, creating a flavorful mix rich in vitamins A and C, antioxidants, and lycopene. Protein can be added through meat or plant-based alternatives. While pasta provides essential nutrients, moderation is key due to its calorie density. Whole grain pasta can increase fiber content and enhance digestive health. Store-bought sauces may contain added sugars and sodium, which should be checked on labels. Homemade versions offer greater control over ingredient quality. Balanced portions, combined with vegetables or lean protein, can make spaghetti and sauce a nutritious, satisfying meal that supports a healthy diet.
