A Light Moussaka Recipe

This is a lighter version of moussaka using cottage cheese instead of bechamel. I have made it a few times lately when hosting family or friends for lunch, it is always a great success. Simple, quick and tasty!! I forgot to take photos of the meat sauce so will add them next time I cook it 😉

You can prepare this a day in advance and leave the dish covered with film in the fridge without baking. And then just pop it in a heated oven 30 mins before lunch or dinner time the next day!
