I love greens especially bitter greens and, I love to munch on chips of any kind. Combine the two and, wah-lah you have kale chips. These are absolutely delicious and, addicting. They are so easy to make and, they satisfy my need to munch and, satisfy my taste buds. The best part is that they are not fattening and, I am getting bombarded with antioxidants from this superfood. Honestly, you have to really love bitter greens to enjoy these chips because they still taste like kale.
To prepare them just wash, rinse and, spin a large bunch on kale in a salad spinner. That step is really important because they must be dry. Rip off the bottom stems, then rip the leaves into about 2" squares. Next, LIGHTLY toss in extra virgin olive oil ; too much oil will make them soggy and, they won't crisp. The next step is your choice of flavors. I sprinkle sea salt, black pepper and, lots of garlic powder. You can add chili powder, cumin or, Italian seasonings whatever you like, be creative.
Bake in a 275 degree oven for about 25 -30 minutes. They will dehydrate and, literally look like curly chips. Now just eat and, eat and, eat....Mangia !!!
