Difficulty: Easy
Makes one large bowl
We all know by now that kale is basically king of the veggie patch; it’s high in iron, calcium, fibre, vitamins C, A and D plus it’s good for a whole bunch of other stuff too! My brother got into dehydrating in the nineties but I’d never really thought about it again until recently when I saw a dehydrator on sale for $40 and decided to pick one up. Now I can’t stop thinking of things to try and first cab on the rank were kale chips. These guys are deliciously crunch, light, flavoursome and totally good for you. Like I said, king of the veggie patch.
Ingredients
- 10 stalks of kale
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 1 teaspoon agave syrup
- 1/4 cup tahini
- 1/3 cup nutritional yeast
- 2 teaspoons salt
Method
- Rinse and remove the stalks from your kale before breaking into pieces (about the size of regular chips). Place them in a large bowl.
- In a medium bowl, combine the oil, agave, tahini, nutritional yeast and salt and mix well.
- Pour the cheesy mixture into the large bowl and coat the kale evenly.
- Distribute the kale onto the dehydrator trays and leave overnight on a 40°C setting.
- Once ready, the chips will be light and crispy. Enjoy!
