Cheezy Kale Chips

Author Sunita

Ingredients

  • 1 large bunch of curly kale
  • 1 cup raw cashews, soaked overnight and drained
  • ¼ cup nutritional yeast
  • 2 teaspoons curry powder
  • 1 ½ teaspoons apple cider vinegar
  • ⅓ to ½ cup water
  • ¼ teaspoon salt

Instructions

  • Wash and thoroughly dry the kale. Remove the leaves from the stems and break the leaves into 2-3 inch sized pieces. Discard the stems (or freeze for future stock use).
  • In a high-speed blender, blend the cashews, nutritional yeast, curry powder, apple cider vinegar, water and salt. Start with the lesser amount of water and add more until a thick and smooth (but not watery) consistency is acheived. The amount of water may vary depending on how well soaked the cashews are.
  • Pour the cashew cream over the kale and thoroughly coat everything.
  • Place the cashew cream coated kale on a lined dehydrator (or parchment lined baking sheet).
  • Dehydrate for 6 to 8 hours (or bake at 200°F for about an hour), until the kale is super crispy and not pliable.
  • Let cool and enjoy that crunch! Store in an airtight container for a few days, or with a moisture absorbing packet to make it last a little longer.
