Kale Lovers Unite:)

What is the best thing about Kale?
There are so many answers:

The leaves are oh-so-pretty...
As you wash them water droplets cling to them and look like little gems.
You can study fractals on kale leaves :)
They are wonderful for your body.

THEY MAKE THE BEST SNACK - KALE CHIPS!

How to do  it?

Preheat your oven  350 F- or if you have a dehydrator use that.  (I have no recipe for dehydrator, still contemplating getting one)

- put kale leaves in a bowl of water , swish them around then rinse them well in a colander.
- trim the hard stems, cut the leaves into about 3" pieces
- pat them dry, put them in a large bowl add a spoonful or two of olive oil, make sure they get coated
- spread  them in a single layer on a baking sheet
- bake for about 10 min. then turn them around and bake for another 10.
- sprinkle with (your choice)  - sea salt
  or                                          - dulse (my current favourite
  or                                          - nutritional yeast.

Enjoy!
