Creamy Crunchy Kale Chips

by

These little nuggets are creamy and crunchy all at the same time. They’re super delish and will dissapear within minutes in my kitchen. It’s a good thing, because they’re best eaten the very same day.

Here are some fun facts: You probably know kale is a nutritient dense super food! It’s rich in calcium, vitamins A, C, & K, copper, potassium, iron, manganese, and phosphorus. Kale also has sulphur containing phytonutrients which are highly beneficial to the liver! When we’re not juicing it, we make these tasty little snacks.
