Kale is a leafy green super food, loaded with antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer goodness, high in beta carotene, Vitamin K and Vitamin C. It also contains sulforaphane and indole-3-carbinol both of which are believed to have powerful cancer prevention properties.
I made my first batch of DIY Kale Chips last weekend and perfected the recipe today. A few tweaks (easy on the oil, dont use the stem) and perfecto! A surprisingly yummy, crunchy, flavorful and healthy snack. Kale Chips squash any snack attack and are a great mindless muncher - try substituting them for popcorn while watching your next movie. You can dress them up various different ways - and even incorporate dipping sauces - depending on what you have on hand, but in general if you have some olive oil and sea salt you're good to go!
DIY Parmesan Kale Chips
Start with quality organic Kale like so...
Sprinkle with EV olive oil (cold first pressed is best), then add Parmesan cheese, sea salt and garlic - dried or minced. No specific measurements, just have at it.
Pop in the oven til crispy (10-15 minutes at 350) and enjoy the thin and crispy goodness!
