Week #3: Bulgaria

This week, we're going to jet about 2,000 miles north to Bulgaria in the Balkan Peninsula!

The capital city, Sofia, is home to about 1.3 million people, making it the 15th largest city in the European Union.

Famous Bulgarians include young actress Nina Dobrev, opera singer Ghena Dimitrova, world-record high-jumper Stefka Kostadinovaand the renowned artist Christo.

I've found three recipes that I'll prepare throughout the week, and check back tomorrow for the first!

Mersi! (Thank you!)

  1. This week we made Bob Chorba (Monastery Style) which was a white bean soup and we made a Potato-Mushroom Casserole. As a vegetarian, Bulgaria was a little tough but we enjoyed both dishes. I can't wait to find out where we are going next week!
