Crunchy Kale Chips
This recipe is so easy to make, tastes great, and is a great alternative to conventional chips. I suggest making a large batch on Sunday and eating them throughout the week as a delicious crunchy snack.
Kale chips are great because kale is full of vitamins such as vitamin C, B6, and magnesium. Per cup, they also contain some potassium and fibre. They taste great sprinkled with nutritional yeast which adds a delicious cheesy flavour. I love pairing these chips with a soup or sandwich for lunch or just eating them on their own for a quick, on-the-go snack. They’re perfect to throw in your bag to eat on your busy days out of the house.
Let’s get into the recipe; Here’s what you’ll need:
Ingredients:
- 1 bunch of Kale
- ½ teaspoon of salt
- ½ teaspoon of pepper
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Optional: 1-2 tablespoons of nutritional yeast
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit
- Strip the kale off of the stem and wash the leaves well.
- Dry the leaves thoroughly – any moisture left on the leaves can lead to soggy chips.
- In a bowl add the kale and oil and gently massage the kale with the oil until completely coated.
- Add salt, pepper and garlic powder and mix until evenly coated.
- Line a baking tray with parchment paper and lay out the kale evenly.
- Place in the oven for 10-15 minutes or until crispy to the touch.
- Remove from oven, let cool, and enjoy!
