I haven't made it in years, but I recall it was easy to make but
time-consuming. My recipe used both bechamel and a spicy tomato sauce.
It also called for lamb or beef layered with both eggplant and zucchini,
if I recall correctly.

It was one of many varied moussaka recipes from "The Art of Greek
Cooking" by the Ladies of Saint Paul's Greek Orthodox Church in
Hempsted, Long Island, NY.
