Kale.
I washed a bunch of kale and removed the large stems from the leaves. Then I dried the kale completely. You can do this with one of those salad spinners but I don't have one so I used paper towels.
For the first batch we used olive oil and sea salt. For the second batch we added some nutrional yeast. (This is not an active yeast. I bought it in bulk at the local food co-op. It has a nutty, cheesy flavor and is a great source of protein and B vitamins.)
Bake for 20 minutes at 300 degrees and the leaves become crisp like a potato chip! We ate the entire two batches! A leafy green vegetable addicting? Believe it!

I CAN'T WAIT to try these! thanks for the rave review and how to--had heard of this, but this post made me want to do it. : )
ReplyDeleteIf I remember my nutrition class .... Kale has nutrients in it that help with platlet counts. This would be a great way to help Java with her low counts.
ReplyDeleteI'll have to try this! I have the kids who beg for spinach in the store, so I think it would be an easy sell!
ReplyDeleteHey, I saw this recipe and I thought of you. Can you have these cookies? They don't have flour. I don't think peanut butter, eggs or sugar have gluten or casein. Do they?

Oh, and the person whose blog posted this recipe made them into cute as can be buttons. I would probably just do the fork thing, but you are more artsy in the kitchen then I am, by a long shot!
So I tried this last night, and was not very successful...too much salt maybe not the right amount of oil....how do you put the oil on?
ReplyDeleteI just drizzled it on and rubbed it in to the batch. I think the key is to completely dry the water off first. We haven't made this in a while so when we make it again I can add additional notes here.
