Baked Parmesan Kale Chips
Kale chips are very versatile, healthy and can satisfy the unhealthy potato chip urge. Store dried kale chips in an airtight container.
Ingredients
- 1 bunch kale 12 oz after removed from stems
- 1 tsp olive oil spray
- 1 sprinkle Sea Salt
- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese shredded
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly spray two large baking sheets with oil.
- Wash and thoroughly dry kale. Remove the leaves from the thick stems and tear into bite sized pieces.
- Place on baking sheets, spray with olive oil and sprinkle with salt.
- Bake about 10-12 minutes, turning and moving them around as they shrink to make sure they evenly crisp up.
- Top with shredded parmesan cheese, keeping a close eye on them, bake an additional 5 to 6 minutes until the edges are crisp but not burnt. Time will vary depending on your oven.

- Kale Chips with Kick: Add a teaspoon or two of Sriracha sauce to the oil before tossing with kale and baking.
- Lemon Zest Kale Chips: Finely grate lemon zest over the kale chips as soon as they come out of the oven.
- Soy Sauce-Kale Chips: Replace half the oil with soy sauce, and cut back on salt, for some savory, umami flavor.
- Double-Healthy Kale Chips: Sprinkle with nutrient-rich nutritional yeast. (Okay, this one might be veering back into the "hippie food" category, but trust us, it's delicious! The chips taste nice and cheesy)
- Chile-Lime Kale Chips: Mix a bit of chile powder in with the salt, squeeze lime juice over kale chips when they're hot out of the oven.
