Kale Chips!
Those who know me know that I have a new favorite in kale! I eat kale probably 3-4 times per week in salads for lunch, dinner, juiced... you name it. I love kale, it's simple and great for you. This versatile green is so chock full of goodness, you must try it. Today I dressed it with a homemade dressing recipe combined from several others I found on the internet.
First start with good quality organic kale. I had 3 bunches fresh from Whole Foods yesterday ready to go. Clean, dry, and de-stem the kale and set aside (stems can be tough). You can use any kind of kale, I used the dino kale. It's darker green and resembles reptile skin!
For the dressing, in a small mixing bowl combine the following. I broke down a larger recipe so forgive my 1/6 cup measures:
- 1 cup nutritional yeast
- 1/6 cup water
- 1/6 cup liquid aminos or soy sauce
- 1/6 cup apple cider vinegar
- 1/8 cup of olive oil
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- Juice of one lemon
I am dehydrating them to preserve more of their goodness. You could also bake them in the oven to dry them out, but be careful - they burn easily!
The dressing is delicious! I left a small bowl of the raw kale with the dressing to the side for lunch, yummy!
They are now in the dehydrator for a few hours and we'll see how they turn out!
