  • Kale Chips
  • 1 Place kale in a large bowl, drizzle with oil to coat and toss. 2 Sprinkle with nutritional yeast, enough to make a light layer. Add a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper. toss well, gently massaging the kale so that the oil coats both sides. 3 Lay the kale out on a sheet tray (or two if needed) in a single layer. 4 Bake for 20 minutes in a 275 degree oven. test the kale to see if it’s dried out. if necessary, return to the oven for another 5 minutes, or until kale is crispy and not at all wilted.
