About Chilli with beans and meat
Chilli with beans and meat is a hearty and flavorful dish rooted in Tex-Mex cuisine, blending culinary influences from Mexican and American traditions. It typically includes ground beef or pork, kidney or pinto beans, diced tomatoes, onions, garlic, and a mix of spices like chili powder, cumin, and paprika. This protein-packed meal offers fiber from the beans, which supports digestion and heart health, while the lean meat provides essential nutrients like iron and B vitamins. Tomatoes contribute antioxidants like vitamin C and lycopene, linked to improved immune and skin health. However, chili can be high in sodium, especially when canned ingredients or pre-made spice mixes are used, and excessive saturated fat may be present depending on the meat cut. Opting for lean meats, fresh vegetables, and low-sodium options makes this dish a more balanced and nutritious choice for a variety of diets.
