Carne de Res Molida, or ground beef, is a versatile protein commonly featured in Latin American and global cuisines. Made from finely minced cuts of beef, it serves as a base for countless dishes, including tacos, empanadas, picadillo, and stuffed peppers. Nutritionally, ground beef is a rich source of high-quality protein, essential for muscle growth and repair. It also provides key nutrients like iron, zinc, and B vitamins, which support energy and immune function. However, its health aspects depend on the fat content; lean varieties offer lower saturated fat levels, making them a heart-healthier option. Choosing grass-fed beef can boost omega-3 levels and antioxidants. Portion control and balanced preparation methods, such as baking or grilling instead of frying, can further enhance its nutritional value. Ground beef’s adaptability and nutritional benefits make it a staple ingredient cherished across cultures.
