Pastitsio Recipe (Greek Lasagna)

This Pastitsio Recipe (Greek Lasagna) is one of our favorite Greek casseroles! Aldente noodles are tossed with a creamy béchamel sauce and a tomato, cinnamon-laced ground beef mixture.. The noodles are then layered into a casserole dish in between more of the béchamel and meat sauce, baked until bubbly and brown, and then cut into squares. Rich and delicious!
