There are only about 54 calories in a 1 ounce serving of beef liver so it’s great for those watching calories. Besides being a delicious and economical meal, beef liver is a rich source of protein, vitamins & minerals.
One slice of liver has the recommended daily amounts of minerals, vitamin B12 and iron. It’s the number one choice for people suffering anemia due to iron deficiency.
Vitamin A is important for a strong immune system against diseases and beef liver is also a good source for Vitamin A.
One of the top foods that provides copper is beef liver. Copper is a mineral that is important for the antioxidants in your body. It constantly fights free radicals that can cause diseases.
I remember my mom making this when I was younger. I don’t recall trying it. I remember the horrible smell when cooking. When I was little I refused to eat meat. I couldn’t tell you if I liked it or not.
I cook it with the onions and it doesn’t have a bad smell Sandy. I think people here love or hate liver, no in between. LOL
Can’t beat a recipe that is both healthy and economical! I’ve never actually cooked liver. Maybe I’ll have to give it a try!
Many people don’t like liver Tricia, but I’ve been eating it since my grandmother made it when I was very young. If you do try it, I’d love to know your thoughts. Make sure you cook it quick so it doesn’t get dried out. A few minutes on each side is all I do and then smother with the onions and or bacon. Such a healthy and feeling meal that is so economical!
To be honest I am not too keen on liver, however your pictures and instructions on how to cook it look enticing. I will definitely give this a go. I have become more health conscious of late and I understand that vitamin A is essential to maintaining a healthy immune system. Thanks for sharing this, really helpful 🙂
I too have try following a more health conscious diet, between my age and my grandson who is a nutritionist, I’m trying! Thanks for stopping by Neil.
Hi, Thanks for sharing us this useful information though i am a pure veg guy but its nice to get such a useful info. If any person is non-vegetarian then he should definitely eat this.
Oh I love veges too Abhishek! My favorite is stir fry with squash, onions and peppers. Simply but filling. Thanks for visiting!
I love beef but I have never heard or eaten beef liver. I never liked chicken liver so I don’t think this would be an exception either. That is one source of protein I can absolutely do without! lol
Liver seems to be either love it or hate it meal. If not cooked correctly, it tastes like show leather. Some that had it in their early years may have not had it prepared correctly. But we can’t all like the same thing so that’s okay for those that don’t like it. Thanks for stopping by Shevy.
