"Kat Benson emphasizes the importance of balance in pasta dishes, suggesting a combination of carbohydrates, protein, fiber, and moderate fat for a nutritious meal."
"Lena Bakovic advises looking for whole-grain, legume-based, or veggie-fortified pasta, which offer more fiber and protein compared to traditional white flour pasta."
"Benson notes that tomato-based sauces are lighter than cream-based ones, and adding protein and vegetables can enhance the meal's satisfaction and nutritional value."

Options like tomato-based sauces paired with lean proteins and vegetables are ideal. Whole-grain, legume-based, or veggie-fortified pasta is preferable for added fiber and protein. Tomato sauces are lighter than cream-based options, making them a better choice for a balanced meal.
