SO HOW'D IT GO?

ooof. these.
these?
these right here?
these are my new kryptonite.
so many reviews pulled me in one direction then so many pulled me in another.
conflicted feelings surrounding me, i tore up the leaves. i tossed them in the oil & vinegar.
THEN! i dashed the whole pile of 'em with: paprika, garlic salt, onion salt & nutritional yeast.
10 minutes later...heaven.

please try these. don't let the mixed reviews sway you. try the seasonings i did-- it makes them divine!

Never had kale before but tried these after seeing mostly good reviews. Decided to toss them in the oil and vinegar and salt and then put them on the pan. They came out great!  A little too salty, but I was eyeballing the salt. The only downside I can find is the after taste of kale is in your mouth for a while. If you don't like that taste, you probably won't like the recipe, but I do so I did!  Even if they were a tiny bit soggy in spots, if you eat them warm, they still taste fine.

Ok so I was excited to try these today as I would love a healthy snack that tastes like potato chips!

I must say that I didn't like that all that much.  First time they came out too soggy.  2nd batch 1/2 came out soggy and 1/2 came out just right.

However, the just right ones tasted good for a hot second and then the taste sunk in and I didn't not approve  lol

I'll stick to my baked chick peas instead.

These are good!  I do admit I was skeptical even though I really like kale.  If I eat a whole bunch's worth of kale chips, does it count the same as if I ate a bunch of kale, or does some of the nutrition go away during the baking?  I really really really want to count them in my daily vegetable count!  I'm definitely making these again, maybe an incentive to start a garden with kale!

I do like these chips, and they are super easy, and cheap to make!  My only dilemma was that they weren't vinegary enough for me, so I like to dip the chips in a small bowl of the apple cider vinegar.  If you are a fan of vinegar either add more or try my way, and if you don't like vinegar try the recipe as is and you may not even notice.

i added a bit too much oil and salt, so some of my "chips" didn't turn out too good, but the ones that did were EXCELLENT. very, very, very tasty. i just finished the batch i made now and am gonna make some more to share with my mom!

These are fantastic! A little sea salt, garlic powder, cumin, and nutrition yeast make 'em taste taste just like the ones at my local health food store but at a fraction of the cost ($8.00 for a tiny bag!) and three times the amount. So delicious. A real keeper.

I thought these were OK. Not great, but OK. I had a bunch of Kale that was almost past it's shelf-life and it was good for that but I wouldn't go out of my way to get kale just to make these.

I added some chili powder and garlic powder.  Delicious!
