One bunch of "dinosaur" kale, washed and mostly dried.<\/p><\/div>\n

Yes, I know: kale is pretty trendy these days. But that’s okay, eating more kale is never going to be bad for anybody.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

After cutting out the stiff stalk, I cut most leaves into 3 pieces: two skinny from the sides of the stalk and the leafy top.<\/p><\/div>\n

Today I bought four organic bunches at Sprout’s. The bagger knowingly nodded at the lasinto bunches and said, “Kale chips?”
\nI nodded, “Yes.”
\n“Dehydrator?”
\nWhen I said that I made them in my oven, he lost interest.<\/p>\n

I have made them in somebody else’s dehydrator, and they were good that way also. In the oven is easier, faster, and more delicious (albeit, less nutrition and less enzymes).
\nI have made four batches in four days. I can’t eat enough of this stuff.<\/p>\n

2T olive oil, 1T miso, 1T vinegar - nothing was measured, just splashed and scooped.<\/p><\/div>\n

KALE CHIPS<\/strong>
\nThe kale must be washed and dried. Then the stems should be cut out. Cut the leafy part into large sections.
\nI made a dressing. This is a recipe from a friend; I think she got it off epicurious. I mixed 2T olive oil (costco organic) with 1T miso (white) and 1T vinegar (red wine). Then I tossed it with the kale.
\nSpread loosely on a cookie sheet. Put in a 170 oven (that’s the lowest mine goes). Stir it around gently once in a while. Eat a few crispy bits.
\nTakes a couple hours, so it’s a good activity to have going on while you’re having a home day.<\/p>\n

One bunch makes a small batch. The chips are surprisingly delicate, but satisfying. As one friend has admitted,"These are BETTER than potato chips!"<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
