Pasta and sauce mixes, dried, raw

Dried pasta and sauce mixes combine pasta with sauce ingredients, which may include cheese, meat and vegetables. These figures describe the raw, dried product before preparation. It mainly provides carbohydrate, with some protein, fat and fibre. Per 100g, it contains 70g of carbohydrate, 13g of protein, 4.9g of fat and 2.9g of salt.

Carbohydrate supplies energy, while protein supports the growth and repair of body tissues. The salt content is worth noting for people monitoring their salt intake. Preparation with water changes the nutrient content per weight of food, and any added ingredients also affect the prepared meal's nutritional values. Full nutrient figures for the dried product are in the tables below.
