Ingredients

  • 1 bunch (16 cups) fresh kale

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • ½ teaspoon salt

Directions

  • Preheat an oven to 350°F.

  • After washing the kale thoroughly, cut the leaves off of the thick stem. The stem may be discarded. Dry the leaves by placing them between paper towels and blotting.

  • Tear the leaves so the end result is small, chip-sized pieces and place these in a large, shallow bowl.

  • Drizzle oil over the bowl and toss the kale to ensure it is all coated.

  • Position the leaves onto a cookie sheet, being sure not to overcrowd.

  • Sprinkle the cookie sheet with salt.

  • Bake until the edges of the leaves are brown, which usually takes less than 15 minutes. Kale chips are best served hot.
