Beef Recipes
We tend to think of beef as being more fattening than chicken breast. However, a 3 ounce serving of Beef Eye of Round contains 142 calories and 4.2 grams of fat (1.5 of which is saturated). The same amount of roasted, skinless chicken breast contains 140 calories and 3 grams of fat (0.8 saturated). Choose your beef cuts carefully and you can enjoy it frequently.
