A great treat for Super Bowl Sunday

Kale chips in the oven: what a great late afternoon snack for a cold, grey day!

Wash & dry a head of kale.
Remove larger stems + ribs.
Rip or cut into bite sized pieces, and spread these on a cookie tray.
Dribble a small amount of olive oil on leaves (I use about 2 tablespoons for a full head)
Season with sea salt, Cajun spices, Parmesan cheese, your choice.
Bake in a 375 degree oven for 12-15 minutes.

Tips - don't over oil OR over salt (Yuck!)
Towards the end of the baking period, shake the tray around to see if the chips slide around easily. Don't over-bake; the leaves dry out & loose their taste.

Comments appreciated - what flavorings or spices did you use with success? What should I and others avoid?
