I found this on a site called Crazy Recipes. Don't know why they call it crazy - sounds sane to me. I love moussaka and it struck me how much this resembled it and how much easier it was than the original. Why "Monk's Moussaka"? Cos there ain't no me... More

Hey jett! The original name for this recipe was "Mediterranean Aubergines" I would have called it eggplant had it been my own recipe (aubergine's kinda pinkie in the air ;) know what I mean lol) but since it wasn't I didn't want to change it and possibly step on anyone's toes. Instead I tagged it with "Monk's Moussaka" cos when I read the recipe I thought it sounded so much like a meatless moussaka. Juliecake, thanks for the 'translation' lol

Hi Dana. At first glance I too wondered what Aubergine's were. So I looked them up on Ashbury's Aubergine's! Oh, it's eggplant! How yummy! I had never heard of Moussaka either. This dish sounds exquisite. I'm going to try it this summer. Hugs!

Oh my gosh... I LOVE Moussaka!!! What are you doing to me Dana? I'm going to be sloshed on your desserts and pleasantly plump if I make your recipes this weekend. Oh what the heck. I've been looking for some good pampered recipes and you've provided them. This one most certainly deserves a 5!!!
