Queijo Minas Meia Cura
Queijo Minas Meia Cura is a traditional Brazilian fresh cheese from Minas Gerais that comes in several styles (frescal, meia cura, padrão) and is commonly eaten fresh, in sandwiches, or used in regional dishes. It is a notable source of protein, providing 17.4g of protein per 100g, and is also valued for its calcium content and mild, slightly tangy flavor. While it delivers high-quality protein and useful minerals, it can be relatively high in saturated fat and sodium compared with many plant-based or reduced-fat dairy alternatives, so portioning or choosing lower-fat versions can help if you are watching heart-health or sodium intake.
