Kale Chips in the Microwave

Crave a salty and crispy snack at 3 PM?  Friends about to drop by and need a lightning speed appetizer to munch on?  Homemade kale chips made in the microwave are ready to devour in only 5 minutes!  Get creative with the spices for fun flavored chips, or have your friends or kids choose their own spices.  Snacking can be healthy, fast, easy, and yummy.


Ingredients


What (your ingredients):


2 stalks of kale


1 teaspoon avocado oil or olive oil


 


Pinch of salt


Directions


How (your directions):


Tear curly kale into large pieces and discard the stalk.


Massage with oil to make sure kale pieces are thoroughly coated.  Then sprinkle with salt.


Tip: You could be adventurous and add a dash of your favorite seasonings-garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, cayenne, etc.


Distribute kale pieces onto plate, allowing a small amount of room between each piece.


Microwave 3 minutes.  After 3 minutes, if the kale is not a “chip” yet, continue to microwave, checking every 1 minute.  My chips took a total of 5 minutes to create a crispy chip.


Enjoy immediately!


 


Why (the science):  I hardly need to mention the health benefits of kale, since it has been a trending vegetable for a few years now!  But now enjoy kale as a crispy chip that only takes 5 minutes and is flavored to your liking.
