Chorizo and Olive Cake

I have to be honest with you right now, my man made this delicious Chorizo and olive cake with some feta cheese! And yes, it’s not me… At the same time, at the moment, as I am at home, it is me who was in charge of preparing our meals. There comes a time when it’s a bit tiring and when we run out of ideas. And yes, it happens, even to food bloggers…

So, that day, we had a little picnic planned on the heights of Grenoble and we thought that a cake would be perfect for that. It’s true that it’s practical to bring a cake for a picnic, you can prepare it in advance, and it’s easy to transport and to eat once there. In any case, this cake with chorizo, feta and olives was particularly delicious and won a great success with all the people who could taste it! And yes, because we are quite a lot of people to have tested it because we also ate it in small pieces for the aperitif of the next day… 😉

A perfect cake : for the aperitif or a picnic !
