Kale Chips

Ingredients

October in Cambridge England
1 bunch fresh Kale greens
Olive Oil
Sea Salt or Kosher salt

Preparation

Break Kale in "chip size" pieces, discard thick ribs. Wash Kale and spin dry in salad spinner.  Put Kale in large bowl and add a very small amount of Olive Oil (for the whole bunch - about 1 TBS).  Add salt and toss thoroughly.  Heat oven to 350 degrees F or 175 degrees C.  Line cookie sheet with parchment or spray sheet with spray olive oil.  Spread seasoned Kale in one layer on cookie sheet.  Bake for 8-10 minutes until edges are slightly brown.  After cooking, remove from cookie sheet to paper towel.  Put in bowl and serve warm.

Notes from Liz

You can try a few TBS of parmesan cheese, or a sprinkle of Chipotle Pepper.  You can experiment with flavors.  I like using the parchment paper to reduce the oil.  They are delicious and good for you.
