About Tuscan meatball sauce
Tuscan Meatball Sauce is a rich and hearty creation rooted in Italian cuisine, specifically the rustic kitchens of Tuscany. This robust tomato-based sauce is infused with garlic, onions, olive oil, and a medley of Italian herbs like oregano and basil, offering layers of comforting, savory flavor. Often simmered to perfection alongside tender, seasoned meatballs made from beef, pork, or a combination, it pairs beautifully with pasta or polenta. The inclusion of olive oil provides healthy fats, while the tomatoes deliver antioxidants such as lycopene. However, the sauce's overall nutritional profile can vary depending on the meat used and any added sugar or salt. Leaner meat choices and minimal additives make Tuscan Meatball Sauce a wholesome option that balances indulgence with nourishing qualities, allowing you to savor a taste of Italy without compromising well-being.
