Key Equipment Needed

Oven

Ingredients

  • 2 bunches of kale (try different colours - such as green & purple)
  • Olive Oil (enough to coat kale leaves)
  • Sea salt
  • Garlic powder

Equipment

  • Baking sheet
  • Oven mitts

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350° F.
  2. Wash and dry the kale leaves.
  3. Remove the leaves from their stem by holding the base of the stem and with your other hand slightly pinch and rub up the stem.
  4. Rip the kale into smaller bite size pieces.
  5. Place the kale on a baking sheet and pour on the olive oil. Be sure to really massage the oil into all the leaves!
  6. Sprinkle with a little bit of Sea Salt. We also like to add a pinch of garlic powder.
  7. Spread the leaves around so that they aren’t touching – you want a single spaced out layer on your baking sheet. Bake for about 10 – 15 minutes. Every oven is different, so for your first batch, keep a close eye on them so they don’t start to burn!
  8. After they’ve cooled down you can start enjoying your crispy, tasty Kale Chips!

Tips

Invite students to help wash and tear the kale, massage the oil into the kale, and add the seasonings.
