HEALTH & BENEFITS

Lean ground beef is a good source of protein that can help with muscle growth and recovery. In moderation and combined with a balanced diet, lean beef can be part of a healthy lifestyle. Cheddar cheese adds some calcium and protein to the dish, but it should be eaten in moderation due to its high fat content. As with any food, the key is moderation and balance.
