Pastitsio is one of those ultimate indulgence sort of meals, like lasagna and mac and cheese. Hot, cheesy, and so damn good.
In case you haven’t figured it out, I’m kind of a soulless carb freak. I want my meat and potatoes and I don’t want to have to count calories or chew on celery all day long to repent. I play hard, and I will eat like a fat kid.
But What is Pastitsio?
Pastitsio is one of those ultimate indulgence sort of meals that need their own food group, like lasagna and all forms of mac and cheese. Any time dinner consists 97% pasta and 3% the stuff slathered all over it, it probably has some political official spending some ungodly amount of dollars building a campaign saying it slaughters innocent giraffes. (I know it most definitely upsets Mister Oliver, and really, he’s kind of awesome, so don’t eat this every day, mkay?). You could add a nice spinach salad to the side, you know, round things out. But lets face it, nothing is undoing this…
Grab that glass of wine and can handle the repercussions.
