Easy Kale Chips Baked in a Microwave

Kale has become a must-eat vegetable these days. However, kale is a tough vegetable, and it is hard to eat raw. To make juice from kale is even harder because there is not much juice from kale. I like to eat a kale salad with quinoa and make soups from kale. I want to add more kale into my daily diet because kale is healthy, but kale alone is not an inviting vegetable to consume. For that, I try different recipes on how to make kale chips, which is, in my opinion, the best way to eat kale. I posted a kale chips recipe baked in the oven in my blog a few months ago. Even though it easy to make kale chips using the oven method, today, I will introduce another easier way to create wonderful, and healthy kale chips using a microwave oven. I am pleased with this method of making kale chips more so than oven-baked. These homemade microwave kale chips are and excellent choice to give as a gift to friends who love healthy snacks.

Ingredients:

1 bunch of kale

Seasonings:

2 tbs melted coconut oil*

Salt, black pepper, garlic powder, paprika, cayenne, and sugar

Directions:)

Wash kale and remove tough stems (save stems for juicing. Tear the kale leaves into large pieces (there is no rule for this, but make sure the kale pieces are the same size so they can cook equally).

Mix well the torn kale pieces with the seasonings.

Cut a piece of parchment paper to measure to the same size of your microwave turntable. 

Lay pieces of kale on the parchment paper (do not overlap them). Cook for 3 to 4 minutes.

Cooking time depends on each microwave. Mine takes 4 minutes for each batch of kale chips.

Store kale chips in an airtight container.
