Serves 10?

Time: ?

Ingredients

1 kilo lean beef mince
800 g can brown lentils, (did not rinse and drain them like the recipe says)
1 red onion, finely chopped
2 zucchini, coarsely grated
2/3 cup fresh basil leaves substituted for dried basil leaves
50 g (2/4 cup) quinoa flakes
4 tsp minced garlic
2 eggs, lightly whisked (can leave this out if you want as not making meatballs)
4 tsp dried oregano leaves
4 tsp olive oil *4 cups woolworths essentials chunky pasta sauce
400 g cherry tomatoes, halved
4 tsp balsamic vinegar
80 g (2/3 cup) coarsely grated fresh mozzarella
150 g greaak feta, crumbled

Place the mince, lentils, onion, zucchini, basil, quinoa flakes, garlic, egg (if you want) and oregano in a large bowl. Season well with salt and pepper. Use clean hands to mix well until combined.
Heat the oil in a large wok over a medium-high heat. Cook the meat etc that was placed together in a large bowl until mince meat is brown.
Add woolworths essentials chunky pasta sauce to the wok.
Combine tomato and vinegar in a bowl. Season. Add the tomato mixture to the wok. Add the mozarella and feta to the wok. Simmer for a few minutes.

Original recipe is too slow and time consuming so I turned it into a chunky meat sauce. Can have each serve with half a tub of brown rice.
