Greek Pastitsio was pinched from <a href="http://greek.food.com/recipe/greek-pastitsio-100793" target="_blank">greek.food.com.</a>

"Pastitsio is one of my favorite dishes, perhaps because I am half Greek! I sometimes prepare it in disposable foil pans to give away as a food gift. Cinnamon and nutmeg are traditionally used in authentic Greek pastitsio, but can be omitted if desired...."
