Magical Kale Chips

If you haven't experienced the magic of kale chips you don't know what you're missing. Simple to make and better than any bag of crisps from the supermarket, this is an easy way to satisfy your salty cravings with the added powerhouse of nutrients. I got this recipe from fellow chef Kirsten Gum. Beware, it's addicting!

1 bunch kale, destemmed and cut into large pieces

Place kale in a big bowl and add:

2 TBS olive oil
2 TBS Nama Shoyu or Tamari
sprinkle a generous amount of Red Star nutritional yeast, garlic powder and onion powder
sprinkle in cayenne for some kick

Mix well and place on a dehydrator sheet. Now sprinkle on some nutritional yeast and dehydrate at 115 degrees for 4-5 hours until crispy.

I suggest making a double batch because if you're anything like me, you'll probably eat the first tray before it's done.

You don't yield a whole lot of chips once they're dehydrated but to be fair I did nibble a bit before they were done. :)
