This is the best Moussaka, I have ever tasted. Light, low cal. and easy to make. I was raised on the really fating stuff,this is just as good! It is good hot, and even room temp.I like it with mushrooms and black olives sometimes in stead of the meats, so good!

I followed all of the instructions except for the adding the cinnamon and nutmeg...which might take away the authenticity of this dish...but it came out great! I also did not have the yogurt on hand so I substututed sour cream and added a little more milk. Will make again for sure!
