Munchie Monday: Quick and Easy Kale Chips!

Kale had been on my mind for a while but I did not really want cooked kale this time.  What to do, what to do...kale chips again.

This time I made kale chips in the microwave at the office.  That microwave is a heavy duty model,  I think. I don't know the wattage but it warms things up very fast.

How I made kale chips was to put the washed, dried, and ripped from the stems kale on a glass plate ready for the microwave. I had a can of the spray oil you use to avoid greasing pans with butter or whatever.  I sprayed a few squirts on the kale pieces then sprinkled on a little bit of salt then put the plate in the microwave for 2 minutes. When I pulled it out, I carefully flipped over the kale then sprayed lightly again, but no more salt.  I put the place of kale back in the microwave for 1 1/2 minutes.

It came out bright green and mostly crispy. I let it sit a minute, well, not true, I picked up a piece that was not quite crispy and ate it up.  Then another one, and another.  After about three I let it cool briefly then shared with the Vehicle Coordinator.  Dear One and the President's secretary were not really interested.

Pretty and pretty good.  I was sorry when it was gone.  So quick and easy.
