This easy and delicious dish made with a few simple ingredients is a traditional Balkan way of using stale bread and it's great for breakfast, side, or a vegetarian main dish.
In a small saucepan, bring 2 cups vegetable broth to a boil.
Cut or tear bread into bite-size pieces. Place bread in a large mixing bowl and pour broth over it. Set aside until liquid is absorbed.
Meanwhile, melt 3 tablespoons butter in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until tender, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and add to the moist bread. Gently fold 1 cup feta, 1 teaspoon pepper, and 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley into the bread mixture. Transfer to a medium-size greased baking dish.
In a separate bowl, beat the egg with a pinch of nutmeg, 1 cup sour cream, and a pinch of salt. Pour over the bread mixture and bake for 30 minutes.
Let sit for 10 minutes before serving. Serve with salad greens or as a side dish. Enjoy!
Notes
Substitute broth with Vegeta, the amazing Croatian vegetable seasoning I can't live without.
Be careful not to over-salt the dish as cheese and broth already contain salt!
