GREAT FOR TASTE AND WAIST

Like most red meat, venison (deer meat) is a source of protein, zinc, iron and selenium. Venison is lower in fat and calories than beef; in fact, venison has about one-third the fat and about a quarter of that in lamb!

It is nature’s health conscious meat, packed full of rich flavours and nutrients.

Venison can be used in a variety of recipes that would usually call for beef. The flavour is similar to beef, but with a touch of wildness to it.

For one 3-ounce serving of venison, you would have approximately: 

·         130 calories

·         26 grams protein

·         2 grams of fat

·         67 milligrams cholesterol

·         0.9 grams saturated fat
