  • Cover these ingredients with water, about 1 cup of water or till covered. Soak for 1/2 to 1 hour.
  • Strip about 5 kale leaves down the middle to remove the stem. Tear kale into chip size pieces and put kale aside in a bowl. Then:

Blend in Vita Mix or blender:

  • Blend and add soaked ingredients and blend together. Then add 1/4 to 1 tsp cayenne pepper and 1 cup of nutritional yeast to the mixture and blend again, adding water little by little if needed. Mixture should not be to thick or runny.
  • Take 1 cup at a time of the of mixture and spread the mixture on the sides and bottom of the bowl. Put a couple of handfuls of the kale in the bowl. With spatula mix until the kale is evenly coated.
  • Place in dehydrator for 2 hours at 125 degrees, then reduce heat to 115 degrees for 20 to 24 hours until chips are very crispy.
  • Store in Ziplock bags in refrigerator up to 2 weeks or food seal and they will last much longer. Enjoy!
