Serving Suggestions

Note

• It is really important to make sure that the kale is dry for this recipe. If you start with wet kale you won’t ever get that crispy finish.
• These chips are just dried and still mainly green in colour. Keep an eye on these so they don’t get incinerated.
• I used a baking rack over an oven tray. It left room for heat to circulate around the chips.
• I liked sea salt flakes but my kids preferred chicken salt on these chips.
