Snack: Krispy Kale


the name kale always brings some kind of sea life to mind. not to be confused with Kelp - Kale is in the same family as broccoli and cabbage, having so many good thing written about its health properties. if you want to learn more about the phenomenal Kale click here.
like so many other vegtable's, you can prepare Kale in many different ways - i have been hearing so much about "Krispy Kale", so i decided to team up with my good friend Megan to come up with a tasty treat to share. Here is our recipe:

Krispy Kale by: David & Megan


these are the ingredients you will need:
1 Bunch of Kale
Grated Parmesan Cheese
Olive Oil
Salt


step 1: Pre-heat oven to 350ยบ


step 2: seperate Kale leaves from center stem (the less stem the better)


step 3: wash leaves thoroughly and spin dry.
(if you don't have a salad spinner: wrap in clean kitchen towel and swing the water out like you
are windmilling in a bar room fight) the drier the better.


step 4: once dried, lightly coat with olive oil & toss.


step 5: once tossed lay on parchment lined baking sheet (do not salt at this point)


step 6: bake till krispy & still green (time depends on oven), just keep checking on it.


step 7: once out of the oven sprinkle with salt (to taste)
& parmesan cheese (i like a lot)

step 8: enjoy! it's so addictive
