    I found them too oily with oil. So I literally just throw the bag of kale onto the oven tray and then toast for a few minutes. No additions. Voila, a crunchy, delicious snack with no additions. Super low calorie and delicious.

    I love kale in salads, soups and smoothies so I thought I would try kale chips....I used olive oil and some Cajun seasoning and a little sea salt. I have to tell you that these were nasty. The oven baking seemed to enhance the bitterness of the kale. They ended up in my garbage disposal. Thanks but no thanks.

    I enjoy kale chips, but I don't care for them the next day. I always make sure to only bake what I'm going to eat right away. Another crispy veggie snack I like is to toss a bag of frozen okra (while still frozen) in a little olive oil, lay out on baking sheet and bake at 400 for about 20 minutes until crispy.

    I can just set them in the dehydrator while fresh and they'll crisp up?

    we love kale chips around here. Even my kids love it. We also put it in a skillet and put in a can of diced tomatoes and some garlic and its yummy too. I can't keep enough kale in this house. lol

    Does it taste a bit like that 'seaweed' chinese takeaways sell in the UK?

    I use the dehydrator, but mist the kale with a bit of olive oil cooking spray to keep the salt & garlic powder on. The chips without the spray tend to not get as crispy.
