About Nudelsalat

Nudelsalat, a German-style pasta salad, is a popular dish that typically combines cooked pasta with vegetables, proteins like ham or eggs, and a dressing, often mayonnaise-based. Originating from Europe, it is a staple in barbecues, shared meals, and picnics. Its nutritional profile depends on its composition, but generally, it is moderate in calories (175 per 100g), offering 5g of protein, 22.5g of carbohydrates, and 7.5g of fat. While it provides small amounts of calcium (20mg) and iron (0.75mg), its nutritional value can be enhanced by adding nutrient-dense vegetables and lean proteins. Traditionally served cold, Nudelsalat offers both flavor and variety as it's highly customizable to dietary needs and preferences.
