Very Lean Ground Beef

Very Lean Ground Beef is coarsely ground beef with most of the fat trimmed, commonly used in burgers, tacos, meat sauces and casseroles across many cuisines. It is prized for its versatility and meaty flavor while being leaner than standard ground beef. As a protein-forward ingredient, Very Lean Ground Beef provides about 21.4g of protein per 100g, making it a convenient way to boost protein in a meal while keeping overall fat lower than fattier beef varieties. It contains virtually no carbohydrates. Because it supplies high-quality complete protein along with B12, zinc and selenium, it’s a good choice when you want nutrient-dense red meat without excess fat; swapping to lean poultry or a plant-based crumbled protein can further reduce saturated fat and add fiber if desired.
