About Moussaka grecque
Moussaka Grecque is a classic dish from Greek cuisine, known for its rich layers and comforting flavors. Traditionally, it consists of sliced eggplants, ground lamb or beef, a tomato-based sauce, and a creamy béchamel topping, all baked to golden perfection. Some variations may include potatoes or zucchini. Eggplants provide a good source of fiber and antioxidants, while the tomato sauce contributes vitamins like C and lycopene. It also offers protein from the meat and calcium from the béchamel. However, due to its use of butter, oil, and meat, Moussaka can be high in calories and fats. Lighter versions may substitute ground turkey or use less béchamel to reduce calories and saturated fat. Though indulgent, Moussaka is a hearty meal that balances flavors and textures, making it a cherished comfort food from the Mediterranean diet.
