Kale Chips
Hearty greens like kale hold up well to cooking of all sorts, including roasting in a hot oven becoming crispy kale chips.
Ingredients
1 bag baby kale or 1 bunch adult kale
olive oil
salt and pepper
cheddar or parmesan (optional)
Method
- Heat oven to 425F
- If using adult kale, strip from the stems and tear into large pieces
- Toss kale with a glug of olive oil to coat
- Lay onto a parchment lined baking sheet in a single layer (overlapping the leaves will cause leaves to steam rather than crisp)
- Sprinkle with salt and pepper and place in oven
- Bake until dark green and crispy (about 6 minutes) some browning may occur
- Remove from the oven and top with a grating of cheese if using allowing it to melt gently over the leaves
- Allow to cool and then snack!
