A dinner party isn’t complete without delicious food to eat and talk over. When throwing a dinner party, it’s best to keep the menu simple so you can focus on creating an enjoyable atmosphere rather than being tied up in the kitchen trying to please everyone with difficult recipes and complicated courses.
For today's article, I will be suggesting special food for a memorable dinner party.


My Food Suggestion For A Special Occasion Like Dinner Parties

When it comes to special occasions, it’s always nice to have something on the menu that isn’t completely ordinary, even if it’s just a meal that you probably don’t make every night.

One of the most beloved pasta dishes in Italy and around the western world, Spaghetti Pasta is exactly that dish. It’s simple, easy to make, and has many variations based on what kind of ingredients you use to flavor it.

The way the sauce turns out will vary greatly depending on your choice of meats and spices. Cooked until it's browned on the outside but not too dry on the inside, this dish will satisfy both carnivores and vegetarians alike.

The Health Benefits Of Spaghetti Pasta

The dish is great for accommodating dietary requirements. Whether you eat spaghetti plain or in an exotic dish with juice and fish, there are some amazing health benefits that you might not know about. So below is a brief guide on how spaghetti pasta can help you live healthier than ever before:

  • It Maintains A Healthy Human Brain: A study published in the Journal of Neurochemistry, found that eating pasta can help maintain a healthy brain. These researchers studied the brains of people with Alzheimer's and found that they had lower levels of a key protein called amyloid beta 1-40.
    This protein forms plaque in the brain which leads to dementia symptoms. The result proved that individuals eating more pasta tend to have less plaque than those who didn't eat as much.

  • Helps Fight Depression: Spaghetti🍝 pasta is a great source of tryptophan. Tryptophan is an amino acid that helps promote feelings of happiness, joy, and well-being. It also helps your body produce serotonin, which aids in the regulation of mood and sleep.

  • Improves physical stamina: Including pasta in your diet has been shown to improve physical stamina and increase the amount of energy you have. It is also a good source of carbohydrates, which are a source of energy for the body.

  • Maintains Blood Sugar And Weight Control: It turns out that spaghetti can actually help with weight management and blood sugar level control. The high fiber content of pasta helps your body feel fuller for longer periods of time, so you'll be less likely hungry and as such eat less.

  • It protects our hearts: It also contains high potassium content which helps regulate fluid balance in the body and aids in controlling heart rate. It can also lower blood pressure, which basically reduces the risk of heart disease.

Why I Have Chosen Spaghetti Pasta

I strongly recommend this meal because I know of its numerous benefits, as well as the excitement it brings to its consumers. The attendants deserve the best, and I think with the following points of mine, you would agree with me that Spaghetti Pasta is the perfect meal for this occasion.

  • Spaghetti Pasta Is Quick And Easy To Prepare: You don't need to stress yourself much in the preparation of this meal, as it is was quick to prepare. All you need are just a few packets of spaghetti pasta (depending on the number of guests), tomato sauce, onion, pepper, salt, egg(optional), and any kind of spice of your choice.
    It doesn't matter whether you are cooking it for 10 or 100 people, it is easy to make.

  • It's Less Expensive: Preparing a satisfying meal without spending too much time in the kitchen is awesome, but that isn't the most interesting. It might interest you to know that the price of spaghetti pasta is less expensive too. The current price of a packet of spaghetti pasta in my area is 400 in Naira ($0.91), which is equivalent to 3.84 STEEM at 126.6500 trading price today.
    instead of wasting food and money by cooking something else to accommodate one person, spaghetti pasta leaves everyone happy and full.

  • It Can Be Prepared With Many Other Delicacies And Sauces: What makes this meal more appealing and perfect is that it could be combined with other sauces like Pesto, Stew sauce, Alfredo, and many more.


Have I Prepared This Spaghetti Pasta Before? And Its Major Ingredients

Although am not considered a good cook, I have tried out so many dishes and spaghetti pasta is obviously one of the meals I have prepared so far. Like I said earlier, it is easy to prepare and anyone can cook it at any time.

It can be prepared in many ways based on the kind of ingredients you use to flavor it.

IngredientsRole of the Ingredients
Tomatoes SauceThis is made up of some fresh tomatoes🍅, as well as onion and garlic for a healthier lifestyle. This sauce increases the taste and sweetness of this meal.
Parmesan cheeseThis is traditionally made from cow's milk, but some manufacturers use sheep's milk instead. It has become a popular ingredient for a well Prepared Spaghetti pasta, as it increases the taste in foods.
Garlic And Onion:This adds to the sweetness of my meal
Basil:This is a very nutritious herb that is used to spice all kinds of pasta, especially spaghetti. This doesn't not only give the food that attraction it needs, but it equally improves the taste of the meal
Olive Oil:It's an important ingredient, where you use a tablespoon or more for every packet of spaghetti pasta and then include salt, pepper, garlic powder, oregano, red pepper, and many more to get the sweet aroma from the meal.

With the major ingredients mentioned above, you can easily Prepare your delicious Spaghetti pasta by:

  • First blend your tomatoes🍅, pepper, and onion.
  • After which, I put the olive oil and blended tomatoes into the pot and stir for some minutes.
  • Add water to the frying tomato sauce, and insert all your spices and seasoners.
  • Now, put break your spaghetti pasta into the boiling pot and allow it to boil for some minutes.

  • After waiting for some time, add a cup of water for your meal, depending on the size of your meal.
  • When the meal is almost done, you could include the basil for a better and more attractive meal.
Why Food Adds Beauty To An Occasion

You would agree with me that a special occasion could " either be the talk of the town" or "the mockery of the town," depending on the food being shared at the party. If food isn't included, then it can't be referred to as a complete occasion because food brings excitement and energy to any party.

Many people tend to attend an occasion because of the type of food to be presented there. For instance, Saturday wedding ceremonies in my area tend to get lots of uninvited guests, because fried rice and chicken are usually shared with attendants.

Since food is life, and we all need life, I strongly agree that food is a necessity on an occasion, and we ought to take our time to prepare this food for our audiences.

Conclusion

Given the fact that food is one of the most important substances in life, I am glad to be giving my views on it. An occasion is never complete without a meal for the attendants. I have suggested a very beneficial meal (Spaghetti Pasta) for a beautiful occasion.

Kudos to the organizers of this contest. Am inviting @liasteem @edidiongeffiong, and @samynathy to check out this interesting contest

A long time ago, I used to make my own macaroni pasta,
It tastes good, but because this is my first time making it, it doesn't feel right on the tongue, haha that was the first time and that was the last time...😅
But seeing your post, I might try to eat it again, of course with someone else's..
This is a much sought after dinner menu,...
Good luck to you👍👍👍

Hahahaha, first attempt and you ran from eating macaroni pasta 😅.I guessed it was because of the way it was prepared.
