Kale chips are easy. Wash your Kale, remove any large ribs and cut into
bite sized chunks. Then coat very lightly with some olive oil and put them
in a low oven. I saw Jacques Pepin do these and he said the low oven was
key. Like 300 degrees or lower. They take about 20 minutes in there.
You can also make these in a food dehydrator. Again, the low temp is key.
In the dehydrator you'll want to use about 110 degrees. And of course they
will take much longer to dry.
