Buy a big bag of kale (our grocery store had it for $.99/lb. We got two huge bags and still didn't reach a pound) and bake away. You can also do a dehydrated version of this to preserve more of the nutrients. Honestly, I just haven't tried it yet.
And why kale? Kale is one of THE MOST nutritious vegetables you can eat. Trust me on this.
Ingredients:
As much Kale as you want
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Paprika
A bit of fresh ground pepper
Before: Preheat oven to 300 degrees.
1. Wash & dry kale. DRYING IS KEY. If you don't dry well, you won't get that nice crispy crunch we all so love about chips.
3. Drizzle the kale with EVOO (enough to cover the chips without making them dripping with oil) and gently massage the oil into the leaves. Massaging is important as it takes away some of the bitter flavor some of you don't like.
4. Place oil covered pieces onto a baking sheet and sprinkle all of your spices to taste. Want more Pepper & less Paprika...go for it!
5. Bake in oven until crisp, about 15-20 minutes. Keep a careful watch so they don't burn!! Some of you might be done in 14 minutes. Watch carefully.
Tell me any other spice combinations you've added to your tasty kale chip!
