About Pasticio
Pasticio, a beloved dish hailing from Greek cuisine, is a baked pasta casserole layered with hearty ground meat, creamy béchamel sauce, and tubular pasta. Typically seasoned with cinnamon, nutmeg, and a blend of Mediterranean herbs, its rich flavor profile is both comforting and satisfying. The base layer is often made with ground beef or lamb, combined with onion and tomato. The creamy béchamel topping contains milk, butter, flour, and eggs, creating a decadent finish. While Pasticio is high in protein from the meat and eggs, it is also calorie-dense due to the béchamel sauce and pasta, making moderation key for a balanced diet. Its complex carbohydrates provide sustained energy, but it can be higher in saturated fat depending on the ingredients. Pairing Pasticio with a fresh Greek salad can add fiber and nutrients, making it part of a well-rounded meal.
