HEALTH & BENEFITS

Beef is a good source of protein, vitamin B12, and zinc. However, red meat should be consumed in moderation as it has been linked to increased risk of heart disease and cancer. Pickles are a good source of probiotics, which are beneficial for gut health. The sour cream in this recipe can be replaced with Greek yogurt for a healthier option.
