Ingredients

1 lb (450g) ground beef (grass-fed preferred)

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 medium onion, diced

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 medium zucchini, sliced into half-moons

1 bell pepper (red or yellow), sliced

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon dried basil

½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional for heat)

Salt and pepper to taste

1 cup fresh spinach

2 tablespoons feta cheese, crumbled (optional)

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

Heat Olive Oil: In a large skillet or wok, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.

Cook Onions and Garlic: Add the diced onion to the skillet and sauté for about 3-4 minutes, until they become translucent. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.

Brown the Beef: Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it up with a spoon. Cook until browned and fully cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Drain excess fat if necessary.

Add Vegetables: Stir in the zucchini and bell pepper. Sauté for another 3-4 minutes until the vegetables start to soften.

Incorporate Tomatoes and Herbs: Add the halved cherry tomatoes, oregano, basil, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Cook for an additional 3-5 minutes until the tomatoes begin to burst and everything is well combined.

Finish with Spinach: Stir in the fresh spinach and cook just until wilted, about 1-2 minutes.

Serve and Garnish: Remove from heat, sprinkle with crumbled feta cheese if using, and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
