Cheesy Kale Chips


These are addictive.  When I first read about this recipe there was a story about kale chips disappearing   The author said she finally caught her little 2 or 3 year old sneaking the chips out of the dehydrator!  I had a 17 month old at the time and if she could have reached my dehydrator she would have done the same thing.  She loved them.  These chips are a little time consuming and disappear fast.  You can use collard greens too.   They are a little easier to use but I like the taste of the kale much better.  I usually triple the recipe.  Let me know how you like them!

Cheesy Kale Chips

1/3 cup cashews, soaked 1-2 hours (optional)
2 Tbsp. lime juice
3 Tbsp. water
1/4 cup olive oil
1 tsp. Original Himalayan Crystal Salt
¼ cup nutritional yeast
¼ medium shallot or ½ small yellow onion (optional)
½ tsp. chili powder
Pinch cayenne
Pinch turmeric
3 cloves garlic
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
1-2 bunches of washed kale or collard greens, removed from stem and torn into pieces

Blend all ingredients in a blender. Dip kale or collard leaves in mixture and dry them for 4-6 hours in dehydrator (until crispy)

NOTE:  Save the stems in the freezer and add to green smoothies.
