Kale Chips

I applaud you for reading past today's blog post title. Thanks for not dismissing me. Kale chips are a tasty and easy way to get those leafy greens in, without all of that exhausting chewing. Lazy foodie. :) I bet you can't eat just one, so you might want to buy two bunches. With a little salt and olive oil (the combo I call "the healthy heart's 'butter'")

Kale Chips

Ingredients:

1 bunch kale
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon seasoned salt

Directions

1. Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a non insulated cookie sheet with parchment paper.
2. With a knife, carefully remove the leaves from the thick stems and tear into bite size pieces. Wash and thoroughly dry kale with a salad spinner.
3. Drizzle kale with olive oil and sprinkle with seasoning salt.
4. Bake until the edges brown but are not burnt, 10 to 15 minutes.

For my gold star students, try subbing the kale for a head of purple cauliflower. Cut the large florets into 1/8" thick slices and follow step 1,3, and 4.
