Crispy Kale Chips
For a few months now, I've been loving the leafy green veggie of {kale}. Although it just looks like romaine lettuce, you can do so much more with it - like for example make chips that are a whooping 30 calories! Double win!
How do I know how many calories they are, you ask? Well, I have been imputing my daily intake on the My Fitness Pal app for the last six days and am really loving it! It's so simple-enter your weight + the weight you want to be and taaadaaa it will give you the exact amount of calories you are allotted each day! Then you can begin: enter everything you eat so that you can either see how far off you are, or you can try to stay within your new calorie count!
For now mine is 1200 a day and to be honest, I have gone over each day- but no worries, every day is a little closer!
Kale Chips
2 to 3 cups of kale (it will shrink down drastically)
pinch of salt/ pepper
2 tsp olive oil
pinch of garlic powder (optional)
1. rinse and chop the kale
2. pat dry
3. place on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil
4. sprinkle spices over kale (you can add any that you like)
5. drizzle olive oil all over & stir around
6. place in a 425 degree oven
7. bake until crispy - make sure to move around on pan to cook both sides
And that's it! Eat it, pack it - whatever you want! They are amazing! Whenever Gabriel travels for work, you can bet I'm eating this for dinner - I still haven't converted him ;)
Sweet Day! Make sure to come back tomorrow for Wedding Wednesday- Bridal Suite edition!
