Directions
Pastitso (Macaroni & Meat Casserole), One of the treasures brought to America from Greece long ago Serves 40, great for potlucks but you can third the recipe for a family, divide the third recipe into 2 casseroles freeze one and serve the other , This is my favorite Greek food! I prefer this over lasagna So yummy!, This tastes like the authentic version to me I think the next time that I make it I will use some chedder/jack mixture With the parmesan only it has a very distinct (strong) flavor, and I and my family prefer a less strong flavor Still this is good, comfort food and makes good leftovers, also As a side note – I halved this recipe and it made one large casserole – about a 10 inch round by 4 inch tall I think that it would have fed about 10 adults JMHO
