I also make a Greek-like version of this (kind of a meatless/ potato-less mousaka): add nutmeg, spinach and finely crumbled non-fat feta cheese. No milk or pasta sauce, but diced tomatoes (fresh or canned-low sodium) and 2 Tbsp. tomato paste. A dollop of non-fat Greek yogurt on top if wanted. - 6/22/10
