Meat Stuffed Grape Leaves are a cherished dish in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisines, known for their rich flavor and wholesome ingredients. Typically, tender grape leaves are rolled around a filling of seasoned ground meat, usually beef or lamb, combined with rice, onion, and a blend of herbs like parsley, mint, or dill. Some recipes may include olive oil and spices such as allspice or cinnamon for added depth. These flavorful rolls are often cooked gently in lemon-infused broth, imparting a bright tanginess. Grape leaves are a good source of vitamins A and K, while the filling provides protein and energy from the meat and rice. However, depending on preparation, the dish can be high in sodium and fat. Its balanced combination of protein, fiber, and minerals makes it a satisfying choice, but portions should be enjoyed mindfully as part of a healthy, varied diet.
