My name is Bree, and I’m a chip-aholic.

No, seriously, I am. If one snack were my kryptonite it would definitely be chips – Salt and Vinegar chips, specifically. If you set a bag down of S&V chips in front of me, you best be expectin’ they’ll be gone within minutes. I am the chip monster. Hear me roar.

Over the last few months though, I’ve been really trying to focus on getting healthier and eating healthier – and that means I need to curb my chip addiction.

I’ve always felt that the best way to get rid of a bad habit is by replacing it with a good one. So, when I thought of my chip addiction I realized that there was no way I was going to rid myself of the delicious crispy crunchy snack without having a substitute that I would love just as much – or almost just as much. And that’s when I thought of kale chips.

While kale chips aren’t S&V chips, they are super delicious and they completely satiate that craving for something chippy. Plus, I can have kale chips a couple times a week without really fretting too much about the impact on my health – I mean, kale is a superfood, guys.

Crispy Sea Salt Kale Chips Recipe

What You Need:

– Kale
– Olive Oil (or coconut oil)
– Sea Salt
– Pepper (optional)
– Baking sheet
– Parchment paper

Directions:

– Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

– While oven is preheating. rinse kale. Remove any dirt or grit from kale, and then dry using a towel or paper towel.

– Shred kale into chip-size pieces. (I don’t cut using a knife or anything, I simply just use my hands to pull apart the pieces of kale)

– Place shredded kale into a bowl. Drizzle olive oil over kale and mix around. To really coat all the kale, I typically find that I have to use my hands to roll the kale into the oil. (You just want a very thin light layer of oil)

– Now take the baking sheet and cover with parchment paper.

– Put kale on the baking sheet/ parchment paper.

– Sprinkle sea salt (and/or pepper) over kale.

– When the oven is preheated, place the baking sheet in the oven for 10 – 12 minutes.

– Remove baking sheet after 10 – 12 minutes, serve up, and enjoy! #YUM
