About White beans in tomato sauce

White Beans in Tomato Sauce is a hearty, nutritious dish rooted in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisines. Typically made with tender white beans such as cannellini or navy beans, this recipe combines a tangy tomato sauce enriched with olive oil, garlic, onions, and spices like paprika, cumin, or herbs such as thyme. The dish is naturally high in plant-based protein, fiber, and complex carbohydrates, making it a satisfying option for vegetarians and vegans. The tomato sauce provides a boost of antioxidants, particularly lycopene, which is linked to heart health. Olive oil contributes healthy fats, while the absence of excessive saturated fats or additives makes this dish heart-friendly overall. However, depending on how much olive oil or salt is used, the calorie content and sodium levels could rise, so moderation is key. This versatile dish can be eaten solo or paired with whole grains for a balanced meal.
