Kale Chips

Kale Chips

I adore Kale!!  It's so incredibly good for you it's not even funny!  I know a lot of people out there hate it, and I just cannot understand why!!

Now it's not something that I love just eating raw, or just in a salad..then I say yuck.  But the best thing ever is when I'm craving something salty and crunchy...Yes most people would reach for the chips or popcorn...but remember we're Paleo!! Neither of those things are a go.  So my favorite thing?  Kale chips!!  What is even better is you can flavor them however you want! If you're feeling spicy add some chili powder or red pepper flakes. If you want more those fall flavors do some cinnamon and nutmeg (not sure how that would taste...)  Or you can do just plain salt and pepper!  The possibilities are ENDLESS!  Ok I'll stop rambling!

Kale chips

4 Kale leaves

1 T oil

1/2 t salt

1/4 t garlic powder

1/4 t onion powder

Preheat oven to 300 degrease.  Take leafy parts off of the kale leaving the stem behind.  Break up into bite size pieces (remember when they are cooked they shrink some) Toss the kale bits with oil, and seasonings.  Lay out flat on a foil lined cookie sheet.  Bake for 10-15 minutes, careful to not let them burn!  I start checking at that 10 minute mark and 2 minutes at a time from there.  Take out of over and transfer to some paper towels to pat off excess oil.  And...ENJOY!
