What the kale is going on?
I hope you all had a lovely weekend.
Have I ever told you all about my infatuation with kale?
No really, my love runs deep for it.
And by deep I mean I eat it multiple times a week.
And by multiple times a week I mean I may or may not
even consider it a dinner when the husband doesn't cook.
Honestly, I have no idea how I've managed to go this long with out turning green.
In particularly, I am talking about baked kale chips.
Ever have them?
They're dope. Seriously addicting.
I heart them so much that I would head bunt a rabbit if it ever tried to come between me and my kale.
Just kidding PETA.
I would never really do that.
No need to flour bomb me on my way to my car tomorrow.
Six months ago when I saw kale chip recipes running rampant on the Net I just figured it was a bunch of bark-eating-Hippies {again} trying to convince me that eating grass was just as delicious as a Five Guys bacon burger. But I'm here to tell you they really are pretty close to it.
And no I'm not a hippie. And I don't eat bark.
Soooo...if you have yet to jump on the kale bandwagon I really do think you should give 'em a try!
I've perfected the chips in my toaster oven.
Preheat the toaster oven to 350 degrees.
Line a cookie sheet {there are usually mini ones that come with the toaster ovens}
with foil or parchment paper.
Rinse and dry your kale in a spinner. Then tear into bite size pieces. Drizzle olive oil and sprinkle some sea salt on top of the kale. Bake until the edges brown {but not burn!}
Typically, in my oven it takes about 8 minutes to reach optimal kale deliciousness.
Then they're ready to eat. Like Doritos, you can't stop at just one.
Except for unlike Doritos, kale chips are actually good on the thighs.
Anyone else have attachment issues with kale chips?
Any other kale recipes out there that you've tried & loved?
