  Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a small individual-sized baking dish.

• 3

  In a skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil and sauté the diced yellow onion and minced garlic until translucent and fragrant.

• 4

  Add the ground beef to the skillet, seasoning with sea salt, black pepper, and dried oregano, and cook until browned and crumbled.

• 5

  Stir the tomato puree and fresh spinach into the beef mixture, simmering for 3-5 minutes until the spinach is fully wilted and the sauce has thickened.

• 6

  Spread a spoonful of the meat sauce onto the bottom of the baking dish to prevent sticking.

  Repeat the layering process until all ingredients are used, finishing with a final layer of meat sauce and a sprinkle of parmesan cheese.
