About Quarter pound ground beef
Quarter Pound Ground Beef is a versatile protein made from 100% ground beef, typically containing a blend of lean meat and fat to provide flavor and juiciness. A key ingredient in dishes from American classics like burgers to international favorites such as tacos or pasta sauces, it adapts seamlessly to a range of cuisines. Each 4-ounce (quarter-pound) serving is rich in protein, essential for muscle repair and growth, and provides key nutrients like iron, zinc, and B vitamins. Depending on the fat content, it can range from lean to high-fat cuts, with leaner versions being a healthier choice for heart health and weight management. While flavorful and satisfying, it’s best to balance ground beef with vegetables, whole grains, or plant-based proteins as part of a diverse and nutrient-rich diet. Always cook thoroughly to ensure safety and enhance its robust, savory flavor.
