1 lb ground turkey
1 teaspoon garlic paste

I'm allergic to eggplant, so I made this moussaka with zucchini instead. It was still delicious!

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my moussaka turned out dry and crumbly.

This was the worst moussaka I've ever had. The eggplant was undercooked and the sauce was watery.
