Greek Lamb,aubergine bake, 14th March 2012

This meal was a challenge as it came from a cook book entitled, "Readers Digest Amazing Meals for less than £2.50".
The ingredients were mince lamb, aubergine, garlic, tomatoes, fresh mint, dill, spaghetti, yoghurt & egg, and served with a fresh salad. (In Greece the dish is made with Orzo, a small tear shaped pasta, difficult to obtain, but Waitrose do sell it)
Now here's the good news..................It's a healthy meal, with less than 5% fat
It was unusually tasty considering it was a 'healthy meal'  but only achieved a mark of  9/10 because I was hungry an hour later and needed to stock up with a peanut butter sandwich!
Yes, the challenge to cook for less than £2.50.......  Failed......  Either our Chef Christine is going to the wrong suppliers for the ingredients or the book was published in the 1970s
