Steps:
- Sprinkle eggplant slices with salt and set aside for 30 minutes. Rinse and pat dry.
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Rinse and pat eggplant dry. Cook eggplant and zucchini in hot oil until lightly browned on both sides, about 3 minutes per side; remove with a slotted spoon to drain on a paper towel-lined plate, reserving as much oil as possible in the skillet
- Adding more oil to skillet as needed and let it get hot. Cook potato slices in hot oil until browned, 3 to 5 minutes per side; remove with slotted spoon and drain on a paper towel-lined plate, again reserving oil in the skillet.
- Saute onion and garlic in reserved oil until lightly browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Pour in vinegar, bring to a boil, and reduce heat to medium-low; cook until liquid is reduced in volume and thick. Stir in tomatoes, lentils, 1/2 the juice from lentils, oregano and parsley. Cover, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer 15 minutes.
- Layer about 1/3 of the eggplant, 1/3 of the zucchini, 1/2 the potatoes, 1/2 the onions, and 1/2 the feta into a 13x9-inch baking dish. Pour tomato mixture over vegetables; repeat layering, finishing with a layer of eggplant and zucchini.
- Cover and bake in preheated oven for 25 minutes.
- Stir butter, flour, and milk together in a small saucepan; bring to a slow boil, whisking constantly until thick and smooth. Season with pepper and nutmeg; stir. Remove from heat, cool for 5 minutes, and stir in beaten egg.
- Pour sauce over vegetables and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Bake, uncovered, for another 25 to 30 minutes.

ZUCCHINI MOUSSAKA
I found this recipe in a cookbook I picked up at a thrift shop for ten cents. It's called "Food Writers Favorites-Quick & Easy Entrees." I made a few small changes and it came out great, plus it was a cinch to make. Next time I'll try it with ground turkey or chicken instead of the lamb, which was harder to find, more expensive, and definitely higher in fat.

ZUCCHINI MOUSSAKA WITH YOGURT
This is my dad's version of moussaka. With zuchini instead of eggplant and without any cheese or cream, just with tomato sauce. You can add parmesan to taste to the sauce, though, or, if you want to be dairy free, some nutritional yeast (that's what I sometimes do). I never measure the amounts, just put together tomatoes, zucchini, potatoes and ground beef, so the amounts are an educated guess. I'm sure this can be done in a crock pot or in the oven, too, but we always make it on stove top.

Steps:
- Finely mince the garlic cloves and shallot. Fry the ground beef with the minced garlic and shallot until nicely browned, season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Set aside.
- Peel and slice the potatoes, about 1/4 inch thick.
- Slice the tomatoes and zucchini likewise.
- Combine canned tomatoes, beef stock, 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning and 1/2 tablespoon pepper.
- Cover the ground of a large pot with the olive oil, then layer it with the sliced tomatoes.
- Sprinkle some Italian seasoning, salt and pepper on the tomatoes.
- Place a layer of sliced potatoes on the tomato layer, season the same way.
- Place a layer of sliced zucchini on the potato layer, season like the tomatoes and potatoes.
- Cover with the browned ground beef as last layer, then pour prepared tomato sauce over it.
- You can now sprinkle some parmesan on top. If you use nutritional yeast, I'd recommend to mix it into the tomato sauce. Parmesan mixed into the sauce is another option to play with.
- Bring the moussaka to a gentle boil, cover and let simmer on low heat for about 1 hour.
- Serve with plain yoghurt if desired.

ZUCCHINI MOUSSAKA
Mousaka is one of my favorite Greek dishes and this is a great twist to the traditional recipe. Cinnamon and nutmeg are authentic to Greek Mousaka, please don't omit it. My family loves this meal, it's so easy and makes a lovely presentation! The smells are divine! Serve with a great bread and a simple garden salad. I don't know who to give credit for this recipe, it's been so long ago.
