Chips
Ingredients
1 bunch kale (about 6oz)
1 Tbsp olive oil
Sprinkle of sea salt, to taste
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.

and cut into 2 inch pieces (Kale shrinks
up when you bake it so you want the

pieces in a bowl and toss with olive oil.
3. Lay out on a baking sheet and sprinkle
with sea salt. Bake kale for about 20
minutes, or until crisp. Enjoy!
