Kale Chips

A very large bunch of kale! Right now everyone loves Kale chips.

Ingredients

 1 bouquet kale or 2 bunches if buying in store
 2 tablespoons oil
 2 teaspoons salt
 1 clove garlic finely chopped

Directions

Preheat oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Discard the stems and the thick vein down
the middle of each leaf. Use a pair of scissors
to cut thick part away.
Wash the leaves really well, at least twice and
then roughly cut the leaves into pieces about
3 or 4 inches square.

Dry leaves thoroughly with a paper towel.

Put leaves in a bowl, add 2 tablespoons oil,
1 teaspoon salt, the chopped garlic and bake
in oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for about 15

minutes. Keep stirring every five minutes, you want them crispy brown on the edges but not burnt.

It helps to place the kale on parchment paper on a baking sheet. You don’t have to worry about one layer of kale as it cooks down.
I did not use this whole bouquet of kale, perhaps one third of it.

Nice nutritious snack!
