3 Minute Microwave Kale Chips
These microwave kale chips are a game-changer for anyone looking for a quick, healthy snack. It's also a great way to use up any extra kale on hand. Customize with oil and seasonings of your choice!
Ingredients
- 1 large curly kale leaf
- 1 teaspoon oil of your choice (olive oil, avocado oil, etc.)
- 1 teaspoon seasonings of your choice (Bagel seasoning, Italian seasoning, parmesan cheese, nutritional yeast, etc. See above for more ideas.)
Instructions
- Wash kale leaf and dry thoroughly. Rip into 8 medium-sized pieces.
- Toss kale with oil and seasonings of your choice.
- Arrange the kale pieces in a single layer on the plate.
- Microwave kale chips for 2 minutes to start. Use hands to pick up kale leaf and see if it's crispy. If kale chips aren't crispy after the 2 minute mark, microwave in 30 seconds intervals until crispy.
- Repeat as desired with multiple kale leaves.
- Enjoy immediately as they lose their crispiness with time.

Notes
Kale Note: This recipe calls for curly kale – this is the most common type of kale you'll see in the store. I have not tested this recipe with lacinato kale, but I assume since it's a flatter kale it would not work very well.
