How it fits into a day
Meat burek is usually bought by the piece, typically a quarter of a round tray at about 250 g, and eaten for breakfast with drinking yogurt. That piece has about 730 kcal, or about 850 kcal with a glass of yogurt. Bakery burek is usually greasier than homemade, so count on the upper end.
A usual serving (1 piece) is about 36% of a 2,000 kcal day. How much do you need a day? Work it out in the calorie calculator.
Lighter options
- My tip: if burek is your breakfast, have half a piece with yogurt, about 480 kcal instead of 850.
- A piece of burek has about 43 g fat, so keep lunch that day lean: fish, chicken or cooked vegetables.
