Popara: Discovering old recipes with bread

In Croatia, as probably in many other countries, we were raised never to throw away the bread. Even if it were old we would find the way to use it. So, this is a recipe of a meal my mother use to make to us when I was a little girl, and I make it still today. The name of the dish is popara but my grandchildren call this meal grandma and grandpa’s pizza.
