About Ground meat sauce

Ground Meat Sauce is a savory, versatile dish commonly featured in Italian, Mediterranean, and American cuisines. This sauce is typically made by simmering ground beef, pork, or turkey with tomatoes, onions, garlic, and a medley of herbs and spices such as basil, oregano, and thyme. Some variations may include additional vegetables like carrots, celery, or bell peppers, enhancing its nutritional profile. High in protein, this sauce offers essential amino acids for muscle repair and overall health. However, its healthiness can vary based on ingredients and preparation. Lean meat options and limited salt and fat help make it a healthier choice, while excessive oil, full-fat cheeses, or added sugars in tomato sauce can increase calorie and saturated fat content. Perfect over pasta, rice, or vegetables, Ground Meat Sauce is a satisfying and adaptable dish appreciated worldwide.
