Lean ground meat is a versatile protein option commonly used in cuisines worldwide, including American, Mediterranean, Mexican, and Asian dishes. Made from beef, turkey, pork, or chicken, it contains minimal fat—typically 7% or less—making it a healthier choice for those looking to reduce calorie intake or cholesterol levels. Rich in essential nutrients like iron, zinc, and B vitamins, it supports muscle growth, energy metabolism, and immune health. While it is lower in saturated fat compared to regular ground meat, portion control and preparation methods are essential to maintain its health benefits. Cooking methods such as grilling, baking, or sautéing with healthy oils enhance its nutritional profile while limiting added fats. Lean ground meat works well in dishes like tacos, meatballs, burgers, and stir-fries, providing flavor and nutrition without compromising well-balanced eating.
