📝 Lightened-Up Ingredients:

• 500g (1.1 lb) 96% lean ground beef – 0 points
• 1 medium zucchini, sliced – 0 points
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved – 0 points
• 1 small red onion, sliced – 0 points

👩‍🍳 Instructions:

1. Heat 1/2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef and cook until browned. Season with salt, pepper, and half the oregano. Remove from pan and set aside.
2. In the same skillet, add the remaining 1/2 tbsp olive oil, then sauté both onions until soft (about 4–5 minutes). Add garlic and cook 1 more minute.
3. Add zucchini and cherry tomatoes to the skillet. Sauté for 5–7 minutes, until tender.
4. Return the ground beef to the skillet. Stir in the rest of the oregano, adjust seasoning, and cook for 2 more minutes to combine flavors.
5. Remove from heat and top with crumbled feta and fresh parsley.

🧮 WW Points Estimate (per serving, based on 4 servings):

👉 If using full-fat feta or more olive oil, points may increase to 5–6 per serving.

💡 Tips to Lower Points Further:

• Swap olive oil for cooking spray to save 4 points.
• Use fat-free feta (if available) or skip cheese and add a squeeze of lemon instead.
• Serve over cauliflower rice for a more filling, zero-point meal.
