For the final recipe in Breakfast theme my recipe is from Bulgaria. I really enjoyed this BM with different themes. This is the perfect chance to learn more recipes and cuisines and also we can gather more knowledge about cuisines. When I read about the themes in this BM, International combos and International breakfast thought that it is going to be little hard to me to choose vegetarian recipes. But when I started choosing the recipes it just took a few days to prepare my list. Each and every cuisine has a number of vegetarian recipes.
Now coming to today recipe is a Bulgarian breakfast recipe. Which is a deep fried flat bread usually served with cinnamon sugar or jam and some times it is stuffed with white cheese (Bulgarian feta cheese).
