Pregnancy guidance
RecommendedCooked enriched pasta is recommended during pregnancy as an excellent source of sustained energy and folic acid. It supplies fortified folate to support fetal neural tube development, along with iron, riboflavin, and complex carbohydrates. Cook pasta al dente in boiling water according to package instructions. Pair with a cooked tomato marinara sauce, lean ground turkey, and steamed broccoli for a balanced dinner.
