Beef with Gravy is a hearty dish consisting of tender cuts of beef simmered in a savory gravy made from meat drippings, broth, and seasonings like onion, garlic, and black pepper. This classic comfort food is rooted in Western cuisine, particularly American and European traditions, where it's often served alongside mashed potatoes or roasted vegetables. The dish is a good source of protein due to the beef, which contributes to muscle maintenance and repair. However, it can be high in saturated fats depending on the cut of beef used, and the gravy may add sodium and calories. To make it a healthier option, lean cuts of beef can be chosen, and the gravy can be prepared with reduced-sodium broth and minimal fat. A balanced serving can be part of a wholesome meal when paired with nutrient-dense vegetables and whole grains.
