I decided to take a light dinner today because of healthy diet. I realize I'm not getting any younger and I have already experienced a lot of sickness nowadays. I choose to cook this pesto pasta because the ingredients are healthy such as pasta, olive oil, nuts, fresh basil, garlic and Parmesan cheese.
DID YOU KNOW? Nutrients in a 1/4-cup serving of commercially prepared pesto contains 15 percent of the daily value for vitamin A, 6 percent for vitamin C, 20 percent for calcium and 4 percent for iron, based on a 2,000-calorie diet. Vitamin A supports vision health, vitamin C acts as an antioxidant and tissue builder, iron supports healthy red blood cells and calcium is essential to strong bones. You also get about 6 g of protein per serving of pesto. A basil-based pesto also contains a number of flavonoids, compounds that support cell structure and help fight disease-causing free radicals. source:www.livestrong.com
That's all. Have a healthy diet Steemians!
Thank you,
