About Carne picada de res
Carne Picada De Res, translating to "minced beef," is a versatile and flavorful ingredient commonly featured in Latin American and Mexican cuisine. This dish typically consists of finely chopped or ground beef seasoned with spices such as cumin, chili powder, garlic, and onion. Sometimes it incorporates vegetables like bell peppers or tomatoes, enhancing both flavor and nutritional value. Carne Picada works as a filling for tacos, burritos, or as a topping for rice and beans. On the health spectrum, its nutritional profile depends on the cut of beef used. Leaner cuts provide a good source of protein, iron, and B vitamins while minimizing saturated fat. However, fattier cuts or added oils can increase calorie and fat content, making moderation key for heart health. Paired with vegetables and whole-grain sides, it can be part of a balanced diet that emphasizes variety and portion control.
