Health Benefits:
Lean beef contains a healthy percentage of protein per serving. A great way to add that all so important iron to your body, lean beef is relatively low in calories, especially when it is served in its own juices and not covered in thick gravies. Rosemary is a natural anti-inflammatory that stimulates the immune system and aids in digestion. Sweet potatoes are full of beta carotene and a flavorful source of fiber. This meal is low fat, low in cholesterol and low in sodium.
