How it fits into a day

Lepinja is the flatbread served with cevapi, pljeskavica and skewers, so it's often not counted as part of the meal. A whole lepinja of about 150 g has about 410 kcal and about 81 g carbs, more than three slices of white bread. Once it soaks up the juices from the grill, it also has a bit more fat than the table shows.

A usual serving (1 flatbread) is about 20% of a 2,000 kcal day. How much do you need a day? Work it out in the calorie calculator.

Lighter options

  • Half a lepinja with the meat means about 200 kcal less, and the meal still looks like a meal.
  • If you spread kajmak on it, count another 105 kcal per spoonful.
