    I kept trying to make kale chips because they're supposedly so healthy and delicious. I figured they tasted awful because I was doing something wrong such as over cooking them. Last time I made them they were perfect coming out of the oven, and nope. Still tasted bitter. Even tried a salt and vinegar variation, and I'm a salt and vinegar flavour fiend. Nope.

    I can't imagine kale chips from an oven ever being good.

    I make mine on very low heat (~105F) in a dehydrator. Much hotter and they will have that unforgettable burnt taste.

    I've done them in a regular oven at about 200. It works pretty well. The key is watching them like a hawk...too little time and the texture is rubbery, to much and...mgh. BITTER.
    yeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh that's a lot of work... for a "might" workout.
    Verses me walking less than 50 feet and paying 2$ for 250 calories worth of delicious cheesey doritos and a delicious pepsi max.


    I think we can all see who the clear winner is here.

    Well, sure. But try as I might, I can't get my CSA to plant Doritos. jerks.

    My husband would pay for money for a Dorito plant.

    I eat kale often. Make kale chips every weekend. Was doing them in the oven but recently got a dehydrator and have been using that. Like them both ways. I will sprinkle them with nutritional yeast for taste. I also will cook it up with some bacon as bacon makes everything better.

    Sounds like a good way to ruin perfectly good bacon to me *shrug*

    Agreed!
