Kale Chips - OH MY!

These were surprisingly and incredibly delicious!  This is not my creation, it is from a youtube channel I discovered of Dani Spies.  I don't know all that much else about her or what she's about, but I am really glad to find her video on Kale Chips.  I'll probably do some more checking out of her stuff.

Here's mine this morning that I made for a potluck.  It drew a lot of attention and several asked for the recipe, which I printed out and brought with me, cuz I knew people would be curious.


What an incredibly health snack! What a great way to get your veggies, your calcium, your omega 3s, and all the other goodness you get from kale!  Next time I will make bigger pieces, however, because they shrink quite a bit when they come out of the oven. They are crunchy, they are salty, they have that taste and feel you look for in a salty type snack.  They are easy to make.

So here is Dani's video that I know you'll all love and you'll want to do this, even if you never have eaten kale before, which I never did.  Oh well, I think I tried it once in a salad and spit it out and threw it away.  But I loved this!

  1. I love kale in soup. It holds up well, unlike spinach which almost deteriorates in hot liquid after a while. Kale in salad is more palatable when it's dressed with olive oil and vinegar or lemon, and allowed to sit in that for a bit. The acid helps break it down; otherwise it is a bit chewy and tough when raw.

  2. Thanks for those tips Luana! I may have to try it some other ways.
