Casserole, beef, made with cook-in sauce

Beef casserole made with cook-in sauce is a cooked meat dish. The figures here describe the prepared recipe rather than beef or sauce alone. It mainly provides protein and fat, with some carbohydrate. Per 100g, it contains 15g of protein, 6.6g of fat, 2.8g of saturated fat and 0.76g of salt.

Protein is needed for the growth and repair of body tissues. Beef also provides iron, which is needed to make haemoglobin, the substance in red blood cells that carries oxygen. The salt and saturated fat content are worth noting for people monitoring these in their diet. Full nutrient figures are given in the tables below.
