Spaghetti with pasta sauce is a classic dish rooted in Italian cuisine, enjoyed worldwide for its simplicity and comforting flavors. The base of the meal is cooked spaghetti, made from durum wheat, which provides carbohydrates for energy. The sauce typically includes tomatoes, garlic, onions, olive oil, and a blend of herbs like basil and oregano, offering vitamins A and C and antioxidants from the tomatoes. Protein options like ground meat, sausage, or plant-based alternatives may be added. While the olive oil and vegetables contribute heart-healthy fats and nutrients, some variations may contain higher salt, sugar, or saturated fat levels, depending on the preparation. Pairing the dish with whole-grain spaghetti boosts fiber content. Moderation and thoughtful ingredient choices—such as reduced-sodium sauces or lean proteins—can make it a balanced option for most diets.
