What are the benefits of kale?
Kale is great for cleansing and detoxifying your system, and is a rich source of vitamins A (antioxidant, vision), vitamin C (antioxidant, immunity booster, detox agent) and Lutein (eye health). Crunchy kale chips are a great way to introduce yourself to this nutrient packed superfood.
Recipe 1: Plain Kale Chips
Pre-heat your oven to 350F degrees.
Take a bunch of dinour/tuscan kale and remove the very tips of the stems. Rinse. Then either use a salad spinner or a clean kitchen towel and dry the leaves thoroughly.
Place the well dried kale leaves into a mixing bowl. Pour olive oil over the leaves and massage to coat well. Then take the leaves and place them together on a baking sheet. Sprinkle the leaves with a generous amount of course sea salt and place them into the oven.
Bake at 350 for 10-15 minutes until the leaves are crunchy and flake when bent. Soggy kale chips are NOT good. :)
Recipe 2: "Cheesy" Kale Chips
Same as above, but add a couple of tablespoons of nutritional yeast to the bowl as you massage the olive oil into the kale leaves.
