Kale Chips with Parmesan - a tasty low carb snack

I have often been tempted by pretty bags of kale chips available in grocery stores - because kale is good for you, right? Well it is - but every time I check the nutritional data I find it high in carbs. Why? Because they always add sugar. But kale chips really don't need sugar - so I decided to make my own! They are SO good!

How to Make Kale Chips with Parmesan

Trim the woody stems from the kale, then cut the remaining kale into small pieces and place into a large bowl. Add olive oil, smoked paprika and a little salt to the bowl and toss to mix.

Spread out the seasoned kale onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Sprinkle shredded Parmesan over the top.Kale Chips with Parmesan - a tasty low carb snack

Place in a preheated oven for 6-8 minutes until the edges of the kale are starting to darken and go crispy. Remove from the oven and leave for another 5 minutes to allow it crisp up further.Kale Chips with Parmesan - a tasty low carb snack!

    Hi I am going to make these! Can you tell me whether or not they need to be consumed right away? Can I store extras? If so, how?

    Thanks!

      They will stay crunchy for a bit but they will go soft if you leave them too long I'm afraid!

      They will crisp up again if you put them in the oven for a few minutes. I have tried this with some I was saving to take to a garden meeting. Of course it is preferable to make those you will consume right away
