Snacking Last Night

Success! I found the perfect way to cook kale - and it doesn't involve masking the kale in some other dish like a soup or entree...kale chips! My Food Network idol Giada De Laurentiis whipped up a batch of these on her show, served with sliced potato chips and a tart and zesty lemon mayonnaise.

I know, the picture doesn't do the kale justice, as it slightly wilts from the oven heat...but seriously, the salty-lemon dressing you toss over the kale, added with the lemony dip makes for a punch of flavor. The best part - you can't really get any healthier than a green chip!

    Happy to hear someone had good luck with kale chips! A friend of mine tried to make them, and I think she lacked the seasoning. They were a little scary as-is. But, I'm buying into the idea of doing them with a lemon-esque seasoning!

    As you said, could you get any healthier? :)
