TOASTED KALE CHIPS
- 4 – 6 C kale leaves torn into 2-3 inch pieces
- 2 T olive oil
- 1 t each white & black sesame seeds
- Greek seasoning or sea salt & fresh pepper
Preheat oven to 400°F (convection setting preferred). Mix kale with all ingredients. Spread the kale in a single layer on a parchment lined baking sheet. Bake 12-20 minutes, checking every 5 minutes or so until kale is crispy. That might mean pulling out leaves as they are done. They are delicious with or without the yeast sprinkles.
NUTRITIONAL YEAST SPRINKLES
- 2 T nutritional yeast
- 1 T olive or avocado oil
- 4 drops Worcestershire sauce
- 1/4 t dry oregano
- dash cayenne
Mix all together with a fork until the mixture forms crumbs. Sprinkle over warm kale chips.
CRUCIFEROUS SLAW
- 3 C diced kale (think smaller pieces for a tender bite)
- 1 C diced red cabbage
- 1/2 C grated carrot
- 1/4 C minced parsley
- 2 T each pumpkin, hemp & sunflower seeds
- 1/2 C fresh blueberries
DIJON GARLIC SPLASH
- 3 T olive oil (I used the very best – which has a kick to it)
- 2 t Dijon mustard – the real thing from Dijon, France
- 2 t Braggs vinegar
- 1 clove very finely minced garlic
- 1 t honey (taste the dressing before you add)
- Sea salt & fresh black pepper
In a small bowl mix the splash. In a larger bowl add slaw ingredients, and toss with the splash. Serve at room temperature. Top with blueberries to serve. (Sans blueberries, I like this as a sandwich relish too.)
