Extra lean cooked ground beef is a versatile and nutritious ingredient widely used in cooking to prepare a wide variety of dishes, from sauces and stews to fillings and burgers. It is beef that has been ground and cooked, with a very low percentage of fat, making it a healthy, low-calorie option without sacrificing flavor or texture.
Extra lean ground beef originates from beef, which can come from different cuts specifically selected for their low-fat content. After being ground, it is cooked to facilitate its direct use in recipes, saving time and ensuring hygienic preparation.
Among its properties, its high protein content stands out, essential for muscle repair and building, as well as its moderate contribution of iron and B-complex vitamins, useful for energy production and the formation of red blood cells. Being extra lean, it contains less saturated fat, promoting a balanced diet.
In different Latin American countries, extra lean cooked ground beef goes by different names or is referred to similarly, such as lean minced meat, fat-free ground beef, light ground beef, or simply extra lean ground beef. These terms vary by region, but they generally refer to the same preparation of ground beef with low-fat content and cooked, ready for immediate use in the kitchen.
Thanks to its neutral flavor and crumbly texture, it is ideal for incorporating protein into healthy recipes without adding unnecessary fats, making it an excellent base for both traditional and modern dishes.
