For me chips is not only a favorite snacks but a tasty side for my lunch.  As a child I can’t imagine a day without Potato Chips, well even before few years I prefer a crunchy side like mixture, Chips, murukku while having rice.

After moving overseas oven become my best mate. Like I have mentioned before I wouldn’t say baking is 100% healthy, but instead of deep frying, baking is any day better for me.

This baked Kale Chips was a surprise package introduced by my Co-sis.  One day I saw her drying kale, when I asked her what she is going to do with that, she told baked  Kale Chips. I was wondering how Chips with greens will taste. After taking a bite I made my mind to do it regularly. It was so addictive. 

After heading back to our home. I got a bunch of kale and prepared Baked Kale Chips for evening snacks with tea.  Since it shouldn’t over lap while baking I intended to make it in three batches. Took first batch from oven, my husband and my friend came home. I told I prepared Chips, they both got excited till I took the plate near to them.

After seeing green Chips my friend told me, I was expecting some other Chips. I told her Vishva approved it, she said then it must be good and took one. We don’t know how we finished that batch. After keeping the next batch my friend and I was standing next to the oven waiting for the baked Kale Chips.

I am not hyping, first time in my life I was desperately waiting for a dish prepared with green. Second batch was also over in no time, while taking the third batch from the oven I somehow  managed to click few very quick pics. I referred Allrecipes
