About Tricolor penne pasta

Tricolor Penne Pasta is a vibrant variation of traditional Italian penne, featuring three distinct hues: plain, spinach-infused green, and tomato-infused orange. Made from durum wheat semolina, this pasta offers a versatile base for a variety of sauces and dishes. The green penne contains spinach powder, providing a mild boost of vitamins like A and K, while the orange penne contains tomato powder, adding a hint of natural antioxidants such as lycopene. Tricolor Penne Pasta is a great source of energy due to its carbohydrate content, but it’s low in fiber and protein compared to whole-grain pasta. While visually enticing and flavorful, serving portions alongside nutrient-rich vegetables, lean proteins, or heart-healthy oils can enhance its nutritional value. As a staple of Italian cuisine, Tricolor Penne Pasta adds both color and taste to meals, making it popular for salads, baked dishes, and traditional pasta recipes alike.
