Mousaka Oven Schotel is a comforting, layered dish originating from Greek cuisine. It typically consists of sliced eggplant, ground meat (often beef or lamb), tomato sauce, and a creamy béchamel topping, all baked to golden perfection. Some variations may include potatoes or zucchini. This hearty casserole is rich in flavors, combining earthy spices like cinnamon and oregano with the sweetness of roasted vegetables. Nutritionally, eggplant provides fiber and antioxidants, while the meat offers protein and essential nutrients like iron. The béchamel sauce, however, can be high in saturated fat and calories due to butter and milk. While Mousaka is a wholesome meal, moderation is key, especially when consuming the richer aspects of the dish. Pairing it with a fresh salad can enhance its nutritional balance and provide additional vitamins.
