Kale Chips



I know you've all been worried sick about Steve's well being and his nutrition. I assure you that he has been eating just as well as when I was posting regularly. I am so happy to be back and I feel like in a small way this is a calling of mine. I know these are not gourmet recipes nor are they recipes that are exclusive to this blog, but I love sharing them with you! This one is a brand new discovery for me, kale chips. I am trying to eat clean and made these to help with those crunchy cravings. Don't worry though, this will not turn into one of those healthy food blogs. If it's good, healthy or not it will be here.

1 bunch kale
1 tablespoon olive oil
salt to taste

Preheat oven to 275. Cut kale leaves from stalks. I like to do this by folding them in half and cutting them out. Then break the leaves into bite sized pieces. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Place in a large bowl and toss with the oil until well coated. Sprinkle lightly with salt. Bake for 30 mins or until just starting to turn brown. Enjoy! And I promise you will!

A word of caution: Though these are addictive and super healthy, they will leave a TON of green in your teeth.
