BBQ Kale Chips

Kale chips seem to be a new rage in "healthy" eating.  I've seen recipes for garlic, spicy, salt & vinegar, but I have never seen a barbeque version.  BBQ chips are probably my favorite kind of chip, so I had to make it with a kale chip! These were a great accompaniment to our burgers we had for dinner.  Here is the recipe!

BBQ Kale Chips

1 bunch of kale leaves
2-3 tablespoons olive oil
BBQ Seasoning, as follows:
1 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
1/4 teaspoon organic evaporated cane sugar
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
3/4 teaspoon chili powder
1/8 teaspoon ground mustard
Dash of cayenne (add more or less or none if you want!)

1) Preheat oven to 275 degrees fahrenheit.  Chop up the kale into bite sized pieces.  Removed any really large stems from the pieces.
2) Dump the kale pieces into a bowl, and drizzle a few tablespoons of olive oil on the kale leaves.  Mix them around until the kale is evenly coated. It shouldn't be drenched in oil, but have a nice light coating.
3) Sprinkle half of the seasoning into the bowl and mix around until it is evenly distributed.
4) Spread the kale onto two baking sheets, leaving some space between the pieces.  Sprinkle the remaining seasoning on top so you are sure each chip has yummy BBQ goodness on it!
5)Cook the kale chips for 25-30 minutes until they are crispy and slightly browned.  Let cool and enjoy!


*If you are in a hurry you could also cook it in a 375 fahrenheit oven for about 15 minutes.
