Braised Beef Heart
Beef heart is a superfood that packs an abundance of iron, protein, selenium and zinc. With only 4 grams of fat per 3-ounce serving, it's one delicious way to naturally fuel your body with essential B vitamins like folate and Vitamin B-12 while protecting against the risk factors for heart disease. An excellent source for those deficient in Vitamin B-12 as well as anyone wanting to broaden their nutrient intake! Braised beef heart is one of the easiest approaches to offal.
