Egg Noodles Vs. Pasta Nutrition
If you're looking for quick-to-prepare meals, or just a comforting dish at the end of a rough week, egg noodles and pasta can fit the bill. Both are made from a mix of wheat and eggs, and you can substitute egg noodles in place of regular pasta in recipes.
Plain naan is one of the healthier options to accompany a meal at an Indian restaurant, according to MedlinePlus. Opting for one of the sweet or savory filled versions, such as coconut or garlic, may increase the calories somewhat and make it a less nutritious option.
Macronutrient Content
A 3-ounce piece of regular naan provides 247 calories, 8.2 grams of protein, 4.8 grams of fat and 42.9 grams of carbohydrates, including 1.9 grams of fiber.

Masala tandori naan, which has garlic, onions and spices mixed in, provides about 237 calories per 3-ounce serving, along with 9 grams of protein, 3 grams of fat and 45 grams of carbohydrates, including 3 grams of fiber.
