Kale Chips........

This recipe came about when I found I regularly had about a ¼ of a bag of kale left over each week and no idea what to really do with them. Then I found this gem of a recipe! It has been tweaked to my liking with the top tip to make them crispy (yum!) They taste great alone, as a topping to stews and soups or as part of a Buddha bowl. Delicious!

 

Kale Chips (serves 2)

·        2 bunches kale

·        4 TBSP of oil of your choice

·        1 teaspoon  sea salt

·        Dried herbs you like (garlic, paprika, oregano and rosemary all work well)

How To -

·        Wash and dry your kale. Cut out the large central stem (these can get kind of "sticklike" when dry)

·        Mix together the sea salt, herbs and  oil.

·        Put your kale in a large mixing bowl, then pour the salt herbs  and oil mix over it and massage the kale for several minutes (until it feels like the kale is coated pretty evenly).

·        Set the oven at the lowest setting (in my case 190 degrees) and put the kale on baking sheets – thinly spread, and then check them and turn them every 5 minutes until done. Normally about 20 mins.

·        This is the magic part – take out the oven and leave on the side the cool so they go yummy and crispy. Do not touch until cold else they will go soggy! Pile them in to a bowl and enjoy!
