Kale Chips

1 bunch of kale
1 - 3 teaspoon olive oil
Hawaiian salt to taste
Garlic powder to taste

1. Remove kale leaves from stem, tearing leaves into 2-3 inch pieces.
2. Wash leaves thoroughly. Dry leaves as well as you can using paper towels or salad spinner. If the leaves are too wet, they won't get crispy.
3. Toss leaves with olive oil in a large bowl lightly coat the leaves with the oil.
4. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and preheat oven to 350 degrees. 5. Spread oil-coated kale on parchment-lined cookie sheet. Sprinkle lightly with salt and garlic powder.
6. Place cookie sheet on the middle rack in pre-heated oven. Bake for approximately 15 minutes.
7. Check for crispiness after 10-12 minutes.

As you can see from the photo, the kale shrinks substantially during baking. On my first attempt, the chips came out a bit too salty and a little oily. Please tweak and Enjoy!
