perfect for breakfast
Thanks for your nice comment!
My husband is Bulgarian and this is our favorite breakfast comfort food including my son. I was fortunate that my mother-in-law was here and we always request for mekitsi but now she's back in Bulgaria, I'm on a quest for the recipe. So far this is my second recipe, it was kind of difficult to work w/the dough coz it was too wet I added more flour until I was able to knead w/o sticking. It turned out well and I added the feta and egg filling...this will be my quick and easy mekitsi recipe...thank you for sharing!
