Lamb and Eggplant Pastitsio

It's been absolutely ages since I've posted anything on here since I joined Facebook but this one is worthy of posting.  We got hit with winter big time on Tuesday!  It has been snowing for 3 days.  We had a lovely fall this year.  Figured we'd have a nice and easy stroll into winter but  nope.  Full on winter weather, bam! 
So in the spirit of the weather I wanted to make a hearty pasta dish and the first thing that came to my  mind was Lamb and Eggplant Pastitsio.  I've been making it for years.  One of Paul's favorites.  I made it so often we got tired of it.  I think it's been about 3 or 4 yrs since I've made it.    Try this recipe.  It's pretty much fool proof.  I added a bit more garlic and oregano to the lamb sauce and a touch of wine as it was a bit dry at first.  If you absolutely don't like lamb, you could substitute ground beef.  Our dear friend Allie came over for dinner and we had a wonderful evening as usual.  Great company, conversation, wine, music, food.  Cheers and Bon Hiver everyone!



Seconds anyone?  ;)
