Want to try this Greek classic recipe? This is a complete meal formula to build up strong muscles and maintain them. The preparation is extremely rich in protein, highly nutritious and fulfilling recipe to try out for your dinner.

This recipe of Greek moussaka is low in fat, but utilizes the egg, cheese and meat protein power to deliver the maximum muscle building support for a bodybuilder. The classic flavor of the preparation will remain intact when layered eggplant on meat sauce baked with the egg and cheese topping. Traditionally this recipe asks for ground lamb for meat filling but I would substitute it with turkey for meat better health concern.
