Here is a wonderful snack that satisfies the desire for the something crunchy and salty.
Kale Chips
2 Bunches Organic Kale (any variety)
1/4 c. olive oil
1/4 c. lemon juice
Seasoning of your choice - I have been using a salt free mix of garlic and herbs
Sea Salt

Preheat oven to 325 degrees

Wash Kale, tearing the leafy part from the stems.  Throw away the stems and dry the leafy part in a salad spinner if you have one or blot as much moisture off as you can with a towel.

Mix the oil and lemon juice together and toss with the leafy portion of the kale.

Cover two large cookie sheets with parchment paper and spread the kale over the two cookie sheets.  Sprinkle with seasonings.  Go lightly.

Bake in the oven for approximately for 20 minutes.  I have been switching the cookie sheets at 10 minutes.  They are ready when everything is crispy.

The secret is to make sure the kale is as dry as possible before the oil and lemon juice and don't over do the seasoning.  Bon Apetit!
