I tried this recipe and the <a href="http://www.vegajardin.com/tortas-de-aceite-60" title="Spanish olive oil tortas">Spanish olive oil tortas</a> are very good, look very similar to the Vegajardin Tortas de Aceite. <br/>Spanish olive oil tortas are crispy, thin and very light. Ideal to eat at any time of day!
