Make It Monday: Kale Chips

I kept hearing about how wonderful Kale is. I think it has to be the new hot "super" food. I've seen it at the grocery store, but had been intimidated by it until I got my hands a recipe that several friends have raved about - Kale Chips!


I think these are pretty tasty, although I am not naive enough to think I will be convincing my husband to replace his potato chips with these. I do think they taste better with rosemary sprinkled on them as well, than without. But I am a rosemary fan!

Kale Chips


1 large bunch kale, tough stems removed, leaves torn into pieces
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon rosemary (optional)

 Preheat oven to 400 degrees Rinse & dry kale. Drizzle the kale with oil and sprinkle with salt and rosemary (optional). Using your hands, massage the oil and salt onto the kale leaves to evenly coat. Fill 2 large rimmed baking sheets with a layer of kale.Don't overlap.

Bake until most leaves are crisp, 8 to 12 minutes total depending upon your oven.

Let cool. Enjoy!

* The kale that once filled up 2 pans will decrease in size by a half or more. It will decrease further once you start eating it too. :)
