Cooking Steps
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Wash and dry produce. • Peel and mince or grate garlic. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Mince dill. Dice tomato into ½-inch pieces. Quarter lemon.
• Once water is boiling, add spaghetti to pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until al dente, 9-11 minutes. Reserve 1 cup pasta cooking water (1½ cups for 4 servings), then drain.
• Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add garlic, scallion whites, oregano, salt, and pepper. Cook, stirring, until fragrant and slightly softened, 1 minute. • Reduce heat to medium; stir in stock concentrates, cream cheese, half the dill, half the feta, and 1⁄3 cup pasta cooking water (½ cup for 4 servings). (Ladle straight from the pot if pasta hasn’t finished cooking yet.) Cook, stirring and smashing feta with the back of a spoon or spatula, until sauce is creamy and thickened, 2-3 minutes. • Stir in tomato and spinach (add in batches if necessary). Cook, stirring, until tomato is softened and spinach is wilted, 2-3 minutes. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat.
• To pan with sauce, stir in spaghetti, a drizzle of olive oil, a squeeze of lemon juice, and as much remaining dill as you like; toss until thoroughly coated. TIP: If needed, add another drizzle of olive oil and reserved pasta cooking water a splash at a time until pasta is thoroughly coated in sauce. • Divide pasta between bowls; top with scallion greens and remaining feta. Serve with any remaining lemon wedges on the side.

Reviews from our home cooks
This was one of the most flavorful recipes I have tried! Left me speechless how good this was! And the leftovers?--Just as good, if not better!! If you are looking for a spin on spaghetti--look no further! This recipe is a flavor-bomb!!
This is very tasty, with the chicken cutlets, dill, and feta! The spinach, tomato, and scallions arrived in very fresh condition. Simple prep and a recipe I will make again!
This is another home-run recipe, and I love the name -- Greek Diners are a great American tradition. Delicious, easy to make, and very filling even though it's not fattening. More like this, please!
Very fresh tasting from the dill & spinach. The feta gives it a nice creaminess and the lemon a nice citrus zing. Yumm!
I absolutely loved this dish! It was fresh and tasty with the dill, lemon and fresh spinach. I will choose this again
Absolutely tasted like something from a really good local Greek diner, of which there are millions in the Chicago-land area where I'm from.
Sooo yummy. I learned how to mince dill and garlic and had an amazing time taking fresh ingredients to a full meal. Thank you for this experience.
Spinach was not my favorite - I would have preferred something like zucchini that had a different consistency. A crunch would be nice. I think adding maybe 1 tbsp of hummus to the sauce would make it more creamy. Really enjoyed the feta and dill.
Somehow this just does not taste Greek... maybe it's all the Italian seasoning :-/ Kinda wish I'd left that out and just emphasized the lemon and dill and feta and tomato... I did add shrimp to mine for protein and don't get me wrong, it is tasty, it's just not GREEK. ̄\_(ツ)_/ ̄ I would still probly make it again though and just fiddle with it.
This was an excellent dish and our whole family loved it. We added shrimp which made a more complete meal. The only thing we didn't like is the tomatoes. The quality of roma tomatoes with Hello Fresh meals is always substandard. They are underripe, mealy, and flavorless. However, they were saved in this meal because they get cooked with the pasta.
