Ground Meat in Tomato Sauce is a savory dish often associated with Italian and Mediterranean cuisine, though variations exist globally. Commonly, it features ground beef, pork, or turkey simmered in a rich tomato-based sauce seasoned with garlic, onions, herbs like basil and oregano, and sometimes a splash of wine. The dish offers a nutritious blend of protein from the meat and vitamins A and C from the tomatoes. Ground turkey or lean beef can be used for a lower-fat alternative. However, high-fat ground meat and added sugars in some tomato sauces may reduce its health benefits. This versatile recipe can be paired with pasta, rice, or vegetables, making it a staple for balanced meals. For optimal nutrition, consider homemade sauces or low-sodium store-bought options without additives.
