About Ground meat
Ground meat, commonly made from beef, pork, chicken, or turkey, is a versatile ingredient found in global cuisines such as American, Italian, Mexican, and Middle Eastern dishes. It is finely chopped or minced, offering a texture that works well in burgers, meatballs, sauces, and casseroles. Nutritionally, ground meat provides a good source of protein, essential for muscle repair and overall growth. It may also contain vital nutrients like iron, zinc, and B vitamins, which support energy levels and immune function. However, its health profile depends on fat content, with leaner options like ground turkey or sirloin being lower in saturated fats than fattier cuts. When consumed in moderation and paired with vegetables or whole grains, ground meat can be a balanced addition to meals. Cooking it thoroughly is important for food safety, and opting for grass-fed or organic varieties may provide additional health and environmental benefits.
