It is rich in vitamins A, C, and K from the kale and tomatoes, which support immune function and bone health. The dish is also high in antioxidants and fiber, promoting digestive health and reducing inflammation. The pasta provides energy-boosting carbohydrates, while the pesto adds healthy fats that are beneficial for heart health.
  • Allergens Reason: Contains wheat in the pasta, tree nuts in cashews, milk in parmesan cheese, and citrus fruits in lemon juice.
