Pasta with Tomato Sauce and Meat

EverydayCooked

Pasta with Tomato Sauce and Meat is a classic Italian-inspired dish combining al dente pasta with a savory tomato-based sauce and protein-rich cooked meat (typically ground beef, pork, or poultry). The tomato sauce contributes lycopene and vitamin C, while the meat provides complete protein and bioavailable iron. This balanced meal delivers complex carbohydrates from the pasta, lean protein from the meat, and heart-healthy fats when prepared with olive oil, with variations often incorporating garlic, basil, or Parmesan for layered flavor.
