Kale Chips

We eat more than just rice, I promise.

For a snack during school time, we often eat kale chips.

They are crunchy and salty, and, though you will never be fooled into thinking they are potato chips, they are extremely healthy!

KALE CHIPS

1 bag of kale, your oil of choice, salt.

Dry the kale overnight on a towel. It must be dry or the oil will not stick. If the kale is not dry the next day (it usually isn't), then place it in a large bowl and dry with a hair dryer. We use the top of a cake cozy (see the picture). When it is dry, cover your hands with a bit of your oil, about 1/2 T--- we use canola, but olive oil or coconut oil will work, too. Work the oil over all of the leaves, really coat it, not so much thickly, but thoroughly. Sprinkle with salt and spread on a cookie sheet or jelly roll pan. Bake in the oven at 350 until it crunches like fall leaves (20-30 minutes).
