Jump to recipeNutrition NotesChicken breastis a great source of lean protein. It provides other nutrients, too, like choline and B vitamins, including vitamin B12. Chicken breast easily fits into a healthy meal pattern, including theMediterranean diet.Whole-grain pasta—whether that’s whole-wheat or multigrain whole-grain pasta—provides a wealth of nutrition, including complex carbohydrates, fiber, plant-based protein, and vitamins and minerals. Pasta is often given a bad rap due to its carb content, but it does not have to be avoided.

Nutrition Facts(per serving)
- Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
