Oven-Roasted Kale Chips

Prep and cook time: 30 minutes

Serves 4

INGREDIENTS

1 bunch kale (the curly-leaf variety works best for this recipe) 1/8 cup avocado oil or coconut oil 1/2 teaspoon good quality salt Ground black pepper 1-2 seasonings of your choice: Nutritional yeast flakes Garlic powder Red chili flakes Organic curry powder Italian herbs

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Place a large, shallow roasting pan or sheet pan in the oven and pre-heat to 375 degrees.

2. Rinse kale, and dry completely. Remove stems, and cut into pieces approximately 3-inches wide. In a large bowl, use your hands to combine the kale with the next 4 ingredients. Season to taste with your choice of suggested ingredients, coating kale evenly.

3. When the oven is up to temperature, carefully put the kale into the hot pan, spreading it out into one layer. It will sizzle. Roast in oven for 10 minutes and then gently stir or turn the leaves. Continue roasting another 5-7 minutes until kale is crisp and dry, but not too brown. Some may be chewy instead of crisp. Serve immediately.
