Baked Pasta Casserole is a hearty dish rooted in Italian-American cuisine, featuring layers of cooked pasta, rich tomato sauce, melted cheeses, and optionally, ground meat or vegetables. Typically made with varieties like penne, rigatoni, or ziti, this casserole combines the comforting textures of pasta with the indulgent creaminess of cheese. Common healthy additions include spinach, zucchini, or bell peppers, adding fiber, vitamins, and minerals. While it’s a satisfying source of carbohydrates and protein, its healthiness can vary depending on the ingredients. Whole-grain pasta and lean proteins offer a wholesome boost, while excessive cheese or fatty meats increase saturated fat content. Though not traditionally low-calorie, moderation and ingredient tweaks can make this dish a balanced meal option that retains its classic, baked-in flavors.
