Vegetarian Moussaka

Might also be called "Easy Nightshade Surprise." This is a layered casserole with a simulataneously light and rich Bechamel sauce. It's amazing what a whole lotta butter will do. Though you could make it with margerine and get a vegan version. Serve it with brown rice.

Ingredients

Veggies

1 large potato sliced thin
2 tomatoes sliced
1 medium onion sliced thin
1 medium or 2 small summer squash sliced
1 medium or 2-3 eggplants -- any type sliced
1/2 cup fresh herbs -- oregano, thyme, basil, mint

Bechamel

2/3 of a stick of butter
1/4 cup flour
1 cup soy milk (or regular)
1 cup veggie broth
Dash each of cinnamon, nutmeg and paprika
Salt and pepper to taste

Microwave the squash and eggplant for 5 minutes to get some of the water out. Layer the veggies and herbs in an oven-proof casserole that would appear to fit the veggies you've got with room for the sauce. Melt the butter in a skillet over medium low and add the flour, stirring to get the lumps out. Gradually add the liquids to get a pretty thick but not pasty sauce. Finish with the spices. Pour the sauce over the veggies and bake about 45 minutes at 350. YUM!
