These are raw, dehydrated and amazing. Not "health food tasting" at all.
I adapted this recipe from my friend Joanie's Choose to Thrive cookbook.
Joanie's Kale Chips
2 bunches kale
1/2 C tahini
2 cloves garlic
1/4 olive oil
1/2 t salt
2 T light miso
1/2 C water
Pinch cayenne
1/2 C grounded golden flax seeds (optional)
(the wet stuff makes a great salad dressing, too!)

- Wash the kale, remove the stems, and tear it into 2” pieces.
- Mix everything except the kale and the flax seeds into a blender and blend until smooth.
- In a large bowl, toss the kale with the sauce until the leaves are well coated (I use my hands)
- Line your dehydrator with teflex sheets (I sometimes skip that part too) and arrange the coated kale in a single layer.
- Sprinkle the ground flax on top of the kale.
- Dehydrate until crisp (I have to leave the house while they dry because I keep peeking and tasting and have even eaten a whole batch before they were done - but that's just me)
They are amazing!
Let me know what you think, ok?
PS for balance, I may share my fully non healthy and fat ladden "La Vie en Rose Key Lime Pie" recipe soon...
