These baked garlic kale chips are a great low calorie snack. They are easy to make and are a perfect accompaniment with a healthy crunch!

HOW TO MAKE BAKED GARLIC KALE CHIPS:

1. Preheat the Oven! Preheat the oven to 300°F/150°C.
2. Prepare the Leaves! Remove kale leaves from the stems and roughly tear them up into large pieces.
3. Wash and Thoroughly Dry! Wash the leaves and dry them thoroughly. You can either use a salad spinner or air-dry them. Make sure that the leaves are completely dry otherwise the water will steam and make them soggy during baking.
   
4. Toss with Oil and Seasonings! In a large bowl, massage the leaves with olive oil, making sure every part is covered. Then sprinkle the seasonings and toss them to combine. If you want, you can add grated parmesan cheese too.
   
5. Bake! Spread the kale leaves in a thin single layer on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Bake for 15-20 minutes till kale chips are crispy. Toss the kale leaves half way through the baking.
   
6. Cool & Enjoy! Let them cool for 5 mins which will allow them to crisp up, and your kale chips are ready!
