Also spelled Ljutenica or Lyutenitsa, our Lutenica is a spicy, home made, chunky blend of roasted red and fefferoni (chili) peppers, tomatoes, carrots, and garlic. This extraordinary vegetable relish, bursting with flavor, is wonderful on grilled meat, especially sausage and chicken. Try mixing it in with fresh onion and egg whites for an omelet. Or even on a hot dog!
