Method:

Chop the onion into half and then slice.

Sauté with crushed garlic in a little bit of olive oil.

Rough chop one small green pepper, and add to onion mix.

When soft add mince and spinach.

Pour in milk and vegetable stock cube.

Let everything simmer while continuously stirring the spinach and mince
to break them up from frozen and cook through.

Add the bacon.

Once cooked through, add mushrooms, bay leaves and origanum.

Cook until almost all the milk has evaporated and add the feta.

Mix with cooked spaghetti and serve straight away.

 

Chef notes:

You can
substitute the milk with water and leave out the bacon to reduce the fat
content.
