Easy Mediterranean Moussaka

By: John Goins from winosity.com
Easy Mediterranean Moussaka
Easy Mediterranean Moussaka

"Classic Moussaka is an eggplant or potato-based dish with ground meat, a staple of Mediterranean cuisine. Instead of using beef, lamb meat was used to add more umami flavor and to create a deeper flavor profile for this dish. You can also add some fresh dill or thyme to add more aroma to the dish. Oregano would also be nice. Lamb and tomato combinations can be paired with light red wines to compliment the acidity of the tomatoes without overpowering the flavors."
