The secret to these kale chips lies in the preparation. After rinsing and drying the kale leaves, you'll cut them in half and remove the center ribs and stems. This ensures that the leaves bake evenly and become perfectly crispy. A light coating of olive oil and a sprinkle of salt and pepper add just the right amount of flavor without overpowering the natural taste of the kale. Baking at a low temperature is key to achieving the desired crispiness without burning the leaves.

These kale chips are a fantastic side dish or snack, and they're a great way to add more greens to your diet. With their low calorie count and high nutritional value, they're a healthy alternative to traditional potato chips or other processed snacks.
