About Spaghetti with tomato sauce and black olives

Spaghetti with Tomato Sauce and Black Olives is a classic dish rooted in Italian cuisine, offering a harmonious blend of simple yet vibrant flavors. The base consists of al dente spaghetti topped with a rich tomato sauce made from ripe tomatoes, garlic, olive oil, and aromatic herbs like basil or oregano. Black olives add a briny depth and healthy fats. This dish is a good source of carbohydrates for energy, while the tomatoes provide vital antioxidants such as lycopene, supporting heart health and immunity. Olive oil adds monounsaturated fats, promoting heart health, but portion control is key to maintain calorie balance. Low in saturated fats, it's a lighter alternative to creamy pasta dishes. To boost nutrition further, whole wheat spaghetti or the addition of fresh vegetables can be considered. Enjoy this wholesome, flavorful meal as a satisfying centerpiece to a Mediterranean-inspired diet.
