Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground beef (90% lean recommended)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
- 1 zucchini, thinly sliced
- 1 pint cherry tomatoes, halved
- 4 cups baby spinach
- 2 green onions, thinly sliced (white and green parts separated)
- ½ teaspoon dried oregano
- Salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 2 tablespoons crumbled feta cheese (optional)
Instructions
- Sauté the Vegetables: Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chopped onion and cook for 2–3 minutes. Stir in garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add bell pepper and zucchini, sauté for 4–5 minutes. Add cherry tomatoes and cook until blistered, 3–4 minutes. Fold in spinach and white parts of green onions until wilted.
