Brown the meat in a medium size skillet over medium heat. Drain off the
fat and liquid and remove the meat to a bowl or plate. Using the same

skillet, cook the onion and garlic, stirring, over medium heat until

minutes.

Layer in the slow cooker in this order: sauce, eggplant, meat, sauce,

eggplant, meat, sauce. Sprinkle the feta cheese on top and the dill on top
of that. Cover, set on low, and cook for 7-9 hours, or set on high and
cook for 2-3 hours.
