Easy Kale Chips Made in a Low Temperature Oven- A Meatless Monday And Fiesta Friday Recipe
How did I not post this earlier? These kale chips are something that I have been making through this winter, so often, when kale has been in season, for $0.99 a bunch. In fact, this has been the only way I have been using kale, by my kids’ demand! Seriously!!!
No, you do not need a dehydrator. Just a good oven. If you can operate it in the convection mode, with the fan turned on, even better! Baking them in that mode at 200 °F gives the effect of making it in a dehydrator, with maximum nutrients retained.
So here’s the recipe, quick an easy. Make it as an after- school snack for the kids. They will devour it happily!
