About Picadillo de chayote con carne molida

Picadillo de Chayote con Carne Molida is a hearty and flavorful dish originating from Latin American cuisine, often enjoyed in countries like Costa Rica and Nicaragua. This dish features tender chayote squash, ground beef, tomatoes, onions, garlic, and a medley of spices, all sautéed to perfection. Chayote is a low-calorie, nutrient-rich vegetable packed with fiber, potassium, and vitamins C and B6, supporting heart health and digestion. Ground beef provides protein and essential minerals like iron and zinc but introduces higher fat content based on the cut used. You can make the dish lighter by opting for lean ground beef or substituting it with ground turkey. Typically served with rice or tortillas, Picadillo de Chayote is a balanced yet indulgent option that connects wholesome vegetables with rich, satisfying flavors rooted in Central American tradition.
