Roast Beef Philly Wrap

 

Beef Packs a Nutritional Punch

 

LAKEWOOD, Colo. – Each month, the Colorado Department of Agriculture features a different commodity to highlight the variety and quality of products grown, raised or processed in the state. This month, beef is featured in our Roast Beef Philly Wrap recipe.

Available Now…Beef

The cattle industry is Colorado’s largest agricultural sector. There are more than 2.6 million head of cattle and 13,000 beef producers throughout Colorado. The state ranks 10th in overall cattle numbers nationwide. A 3 oz. serving of lean beef (about the size of a deck of cards), has an average of about 150 calories and is a good or excellent source of 10 essential nutrients. Beef is an excellent source of protein and zinc. Look for beef at your local grocery store or at restaurants across the state.
