About Burger patty with mustard

A burger patty served with mustard is a dish popular in American and global cuisines. Burger patties are typically made from ground beef, though other proteins like turkey or plant-based options are common. Mustard, a condiment made from ground mustard seeds, vinegar, and spices, adds tanginess and depth of flavor. A standard ground beef patty offers a good source of protein, iron, and vitamin B12, supporting muscle development, oxygen transport, and energy metabolism. Mustard is low in calories and contains compounds like selenium and magnesium. However, the nutritional profile varies based on the patty's ingredients (lean vs. fatty meats, plant-based alternatives) and the type of mustard used (classic yellow, Dijon, etc.). This meal can be adapted to fit various dietary preferences, making it a versatile choice for many.

Health Benefits

• Rich in protein, aiding muscle repair and growth, especially in ground beef (~20-25g protein per serving).
• Provides iron, supporting red blood cell production and preventing anemia (~2.5 mg per serving of beef).
• Contains vitamin B12, essential for DNA synthesis and energy metabolism (~2.5 mcg in beef per serving).

Dietary Considerations
