Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb lean ground beef
- 2 medium zucchinis, spiralized into rice-sized pieces
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon paprika

Instructions
- Prepare the Vegetables: Wash and spiralize the zucchinis into rice-like pieces; halve the cherry tomatoes and finely chop the red onion.
- Cook the Beef: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef, breaking it apart. When browned, add garlic, paprika, cumin, oregano, salt, and pepper. Cook until fragrant and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes.
- Sauté the Vegetables: In a separate pan, sauté red onion until translucent, add cherry tomatoes, cook for 2 minutes, then add spiralized zucchini and cook for 2-3 minutes until tender.
- Assemble the Bowls: Layer zucchini rice, ground beef, and sautéed vegetables in bowls. Top with feta and parsley, drizzle with olive oil if desired.
