Add Ground Lamb to Your Weeknight Meals!<\/h2>\n
Because ground meat is economical and full of quick protein, it\u2019s a natural choice for weeknight meals. And, since winter has settled in for a good long while, it\u2019s definitely the season for warm meals with ground meat, such as chili, shepherd\u2019s pie, spaghetti & meatballs, and countless more. While ground beef is often the go-to meat for these types of recipes, why not switch things up and use ground lamb instead?<\/p>\n

Ground lamb is full of nutrients, such as protein, iron, selenium, zinc, plus Omega 3 and Omega 6 fatty acids (the \u201cgood\u201d fats). Because lamb is raised on small farms like\u00a0Misty<\/span>\u00a0Lane<\/span>, the meat is wholesome and clean, which is good not only for your health, but also good for the environment, since\u00a0small farms tend to treat their animals well and use sustainable methods.<\/p>\n

Some might be wary of the strong flavor of lamb meat, but many who try it are pleasantly surprised at how mild and delicious it is. Adding ground lamb to your recipe rotation is a great way to add variety and nutrition!\u00a0Misty<\/span>\u00a0Lane<\/span>\u00a0ground lamb comes in 1 pound frozen packages, so all you need to do is pull a package (or two, depending on your recipe) from your freezer to your fridge the day before you make your meal, and it will be ready to use in any number of dishes.<\/p>\n

Need some new recipes to get you out of a rut? Here are three to check out:<\/p>\n

Try making a steaming pot of\u00a0Lamb and White Bean Chili<\/a>\u00a0for tasty comfort.<\/p>\n

Shepherd\u2019s Pie<\/a>\u00a0is a great way to use up winter vegetables, and though many in the United States use ground beef, lamb is traditional for this dish in Ireland.<\/p>\n

For a twist on the usual spaghetti & meatballs, try\u00a0Tender Lamb Meatballs in Fragrant Tomato Sauce<\/a>, served over rice or couscous. The sauce in this recipe sounds amazing.<\/p>\n

Grass Fed Ground\u00a0Lamb, non GMO, $11.99 per pound, in frozen 1 lb. packages.<\/strong><\/p>\n
