Cheezy Kale Chip-Flavored Kale Side Dish

vegan, serves 4

Ingredients:

  • 3 cups frozen kale (Tuscan kale from Trader Joe’s used) – thawed
  • 1/2 – 2/3 cups nutritional yeast
  • 1 lemon, squeezed (optional)
  • a few pinches of salt
  • a dash of pepper (and any other spices you may want to try – garlic powder, chipotle powder and more)

Directions:

1. Turn oven to 400 degrees.

2. Add the ingredients to a medium-sized, oven friendly dish. Toss well. The frozen kale should be somewhat wet so will easily soak up the dry nutritional yeast flakes.

3. Bake at 400 degrees for about 20-30 minutes or until the kale becomes caramelized and dry on the top layer creating a kale chip-flavored crust on your kale bake.

4. Serve by scooping onto serving plates. You can add a pat of vegan butter or drizzle of olive oil over top if you’d like.
