I love this recipe because it's finger lickin good! I ALWAYS at least triple the recipe & look forward to a little left over Lecho that I can then eat with rice. There is never any Cevapcici left over. The only reason there's any Lecho left over is that my youngest refuses to eat anything but raw paprikas! (Adapted from Ursula Summ)
