Healthy Meal Ideas With Beef Mince
Is mince healthy?
When it comes to making a healthy mince recipe, the most important thing is finding a good-quality mince. Read the label or speak to your butcher in order to choose a product with a high meat content. If saturated fat is a concern, opt for lean varieties of red meats or choose a naturally leaner option, such as turkey mince.

Best chilli con carne
Our most popular chilli con carne recipe ever, made Tex-Mex-style with aged beef mince, chipotle powder, red wine, dark chocolate and semi-dried tomatoes.

Put turkey on the menu with this kheema matar (mince and pea curry) dish. Not only does it provide 43.2g protein per portion, but turkey also contains tryptophan – an amino acid that's required to create serotonin in the body. Serotonin helps regulate mood and is involved in the creation of melatonin, the sleep hormone. It's a great choice for those days where you're feeling a bit more tired and stressed.
Vegan chilli non carne
This sweet and smoky chilli is the epitome of healthy comfort food, providing plenty of satisfying plant protein and fibre from the beans. The tomato sauce is rich in skin-healthy antioxidants and potassium – important for replenishing your salt balance after a workout. It also freezes well, so it's perfect for busier days.
