CRISPY ROASTED KALE

ALKALINE VEGAN

Ingredients

  • 2 - 3 bunches curly kale (about 2 1/2 pounds)

  • 1/4 cup greek olive oil

  • 1/2 teaspoon celtic sea salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

  • sesame seeds

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F/185°C.

  • Arrange 3 oven racks evenly spaced in the oven.

  • Lay each kale leaf on a board and, with a small sharp knife, cut out the hard stem/vein.

  • Gently tear large leaves in half.

  • Place the kale in a large bowl of water and wash it well.

  • Drain the kale and thoroughly dry it in a salad spinner or with paper towel.

  • Dry out the bowl, and put the kale back in the bowl.

  • Toss the kale with the olive oil, sea salt, and ground black pepper.

  • Divide the kale among 3 sheet pans or roast them in batches.

  • If you put too much kale on one pan, it will steam rather than roast and will never become crisp.

  • Roast for 9 - 11 minutes, until crisp.

  • Remove from open and lightly sprinkle sesame seeds.

  • Serve warm and enjoy.
