Perhaps the easiest, healthier and fun to eat chips in the whole wide world, smile! I learned to make these chips years ago from my daughter Dona. Mine are simple but hers are super crunchy and loaded with all kinds of flavorful dry herbs.
 
Category:  SNACK or SIDE TO SANDWICHES/BURGERS
Approx. Prep and Cook Time:  Under 30 Minutes      
Approximate Cost:    $3.30 or $1.65 per serving
Difficulty Level:  Easy
Allergens, Other:  Gluten Free   __X__   Vegetarian __X__ 
Servings: 2
 
Ingredients
1 bunch of Kale ($2.00)
2 tbsp. of Angie’s basting olive oil (one for each tray) (.60)
2 tsp. (one for each tray) of Angie’s Dry Seasoning (or to-taste) (less is best) (.40)
1 tsp. (1/2 for each tray) of Smoked Paprika (.30)
 
Directions
  • Carefully remove the kale leaves from the hard stems with a small knife or your kitchen shears. Try not to break them into small pieces because after baked, they become real small.
  • Next, if you have a salad spinner, fill it with cold water, put your kale leaves in, rub well to clean, drain and spin to get rid of most of the water.
  • Put paper towel in the bottom of 2 baking sheets and place the dry leaves without overlapping. I leave them there for several hours and go often to pat them down lightly to help the dry out faster.
  • Once they are almost totally dry (99%) I drizzle 1 tbsp. of my basting oil over each tray, then the paprika and seasoning.
  • Now, with your clean hands, mix the leaves with the oil and seasoning until all the leaves are covered and glossy, then again spread them all over the tray so they do not overlap.
  • Preheat your over at 290 to 300 degrees, depending on your oven calibration and bake the kale for about 15 minutes (and rotate the trays half way through), until you see the chips edges are turning a light brown color WARNING: watch out carefully because they can easily burn.
