Kale Chips = AMAZING.

So for our weekly Sunday dinners, we had kale chips as a side dish yesterday!  It was seriously delish.  I think you will very much enjoy not only the health benefits (kale is a wonder food!) but also the melt in your mouth scrum-diddly-umptiousness.

Ingredients:
- Bunch of Kale
- Salt, pepper, chili flakes if you like it hot
- Optional curry powder (I used Moroccan)
- 1 tbsp Balsamic vinegar or other kind of vinegar
- 1 tbsp olive oil

How to:


1. Wash and rip leaves off kale, leaving out the stalk and the rough parts near the center.  Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

2.  Place kale in a baking tray, preferably only one layer, and mix with olive oil and vinegar.

3.  Bake in oven for approx 15-20 minute, until crispy.

4.  Season to taste.  You may also like to include lime juice, lemon, or anything your imagination desires!

Sunday night dinners are my favorite, they are a time to bond, a time to enjoy wholesome home-cooked food, a time to relax, a time to laugh, a time to be with friends, a time to try something new, a time to put away the books while taking out the dishes.  I am finding that I am a pretty decent cook!

Oh university traditions.
