Traditional and Asian-Inspired Kale Chips Are an Affordable, Healthy, and Irresistible Snack
by Marni Fogelson-Teel, 08/29/11
We’ve been having a bit of healthy snack time fatigue around our house, so we decided to whip up a new snack that would satisfy our need to crunch, is healthy, and is affordable. We’ve tried store-bought brands of kale chips before, some of which are truly delicious, but they are often too expensive to be an everyday purchase ($7.00 for a bag of dried kale - no thanks!). Kale is overflowing at farmer’s markets these days so we took advantage of this Vitamin A and C powerhouse: Here’s my family’s recipes for the more traditional, "cheesy" kale chips as well as an Asian-inspired version.
Hi Marni-
My mouth watered while I read this! Such gorgeous photos of such a yummy snack. I actually got some kale into my very finicky preschooler by making kale chips! Thanks for the variations of the recipe.
