I knew about Ayvar but not Liutenitsa, I guess they're not too different, just slight variations depending on what veggies do you use.
Now this is a funny one, закуска, probably people were eating it mainly in the mornings at some point, anyways we share so many words, I watched some bulgarian movie/tv series and could hear a lot of similar sounding expressions.
Oh really? which series?
Traditional liutenitsa is with roasted eggplants & peppers (prefferably on fire) and then cooked with tomato sauce, oil, salt, sugar... slowly on fire again...
It was kind of a ritual when we we kids to sit around and taste it first on a big chunck of bread :D
Then the variations go wide again.. with adding carrots, different spices and on of my grannies even put apples for making it sweeter, instead of adding sugar :)

The TV series is called Undercover/Pod prikritie, at some point I ran out of anything good to watch and I came upon this one, managed to watch the first 4 seasons with breaks in-between.
If you ever plan to watch any romanian series, there's only 2 that I can recommend: Umbre and Spy/Master
yeah those tricky moments...
if i could turn it to creativity... cool
sometimes just do nothing...introspection..metidation..
very rarely i turn the tv on :)
AND of course Youtube... seems addictive.. till you get to the end of doom scrolling :D
