I just made this and I LOVE them. I am thinking it would be good to have in place of popcorn too.
I got this from here: https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?bl...31518019742291
and copied it word for word. -
So the idea is you get a bunch of kale - the curlier and purplier the better, in my opinion. Destem those suckers using the pinch-between-your-thumb-and-forefinger-and pull method, just because it's so satisfying, like knocking over dominoes or running your fingers over piano keys. Break up your kale a little bit more, but they don't have to be small pieces, they'll shrink in the oven. Preheat your oven to about 375. Toss your kale pieces with enough olive oil to coat, but not drench, each piece. Add in a little salt and pepper and some finely minced garlic and spread it all out onto a cookie sheet. You want your pieces to have their own space - no overlapping - for crunchiness sake. Bake in the oven until they turn into little melt in your mouth crisps (about 10-15mins). enjoy.
