Mandy, every Sat night during the summer, in my late teens – early 20′s, my friends and I would always head to the 24 hour Greek run diners after a late,late night out. There was one diner in particular that made an awesome Pastitsio, and I ALWAYS ordered it. Guess what? Yours looks even better! I’m drooling!

The meat sauce contains 3.3 lbs. of ground beef? Just wanted to check because it seems like an awful lot of meat!
Yup, that’s correct, it’s about 3.3lbs.
The amount this recipe makes is quite a lot as I do it in a very large dish, and once you’ve spread the meat and it falls inbetween the pasta, it doesn’t seem too much at all. When I make a lasagne in that same dish I use about the same amount of mince, it serves 8 to 10 portions.
