Greek Pastitsio

This Greek casserole is traditionally pasta baked in a flavorful meat sauce and topped with another sauce, such as béchamel. But we decided to skip the extra layer of sauce and cover ours with layers of buttery, flaky phyllo dough instead. The phyllo adds a nice crunch to this delicious dish, making a truly scrumptious, savory pie. Don’t pull out your best dinnerware for this one. It’s so tasty, you’ll want to throw your plate and yell “Opa”! Note that the cheeses won’t really melt. They will soften and become nice and creamy, but it won’t be gooey like a Cheddar or American cheese.
