Timballo is a decadent Italian baked dish with regional variations across Italy. Originating in Abruzzo and featured in classic Italian cuisine, it is often considered a special occasion meal due to its elaborate preparation. The base typically consists of layered pasta, rice, or crepes, filled with a mixture of meats, vegetables, tomato sauce, cheese, and occasionally eggs. Ingredients like sausage, ground beef, ham, or seasonal vegetables are balanced by creamy béchamel or rich mozzarella. While Timballo is rich in protein from its meat and cheese content, as well as vitamins from vegetables in some versions, it is also high in calories and saturated fats due to the generous use of cheese and fats from cured meats. Its refined pasta or rice base contributes carbohydrates but lacks fiber. Timballo is best enjoyed in moderation, complemented by lighter sides to balance its indulgent profile.
