I used Dino Kale. It is a sweeter Kale that I use in Salads and it was great in the Kale chips. Be careful not to use to much Sea Salt. Use as much nutritional yeast as you want as it gives it that cheesy flavor (I use nutritional yeast on popcorn, yummy) I baked these but I will try a dehydrator next time. I buy Kale Chips commercially and they are an expensive snack. I wanted to make them myself. This recipe was easy. These chips were delicious and addictive. What a wonderful low calorie and healthy snack to have on hand to serve to family and friends!!

This was super yummy!!! Next time, I'm going to try garlic salt! I bet that would be great too! Great cheesy flavor with the Nut yeast :) I put mine in my dehydrator about 115 to start, then hour later I turn it up to 135 . Total dry time was about 3 hours and they were very crispy! Thanks!!

Great recipe! So much more economical than buying ready-made at the natural foods store. I crush up some cashew nuts to mix with the yeast and give it some more "grab" and substance on the kale. I've tried making kale chips several ways, and this low-temp method seems to be a lot easier. I don't have to "babysit" them so much to prevent scorching. Thanks for sharing!

Very yummy. The whole family loves these! I put it all in a gallon ziplock bag, it was much easier to make sure the seasons distributed evenly that way, and your hands don't get dirty; plus then the kids could help. :)

Very addictive! I have some more in the oven as I type. My boys love them and requested I go get more Kale. Very simular taste to pumpkin seeds. I added some garlic salt. I know the batch in the oven will be good because they tasted good even before going in the oven.

This is a really easy, simple, and delicious recipe. I gave my kale a little "massage" to help spread the olive oil around before I added the nutritional yeast and salt to help it stick. I also found it helpful to use parchment on my baking sheet for easy cleanup. As a side note, I made and reviewed this recipe exactly as written. You can't substitute popcorn seasoning for the main ingredient (other than kale) in this recipe and expect to get the same results. It's a totally different recipe.

These are excellent! Thanks for delicious way to enjoy kale. If you don't have nutritional yeast use parmesan.

I bought some commercially made chips last week and loved them so I thought they must be easy to make! They are! I used the oven to dehydrate and just a sprinkle of Thai seasoning in addition to the yeast, instead of salt. Delicious!!! Thanks for the awesomely easy recipe! Make sure to buy a couple bunches of kale... The first one will be gone as soon as they're done!

This was insanely fantastic and addicting. I made 5 batches - it was all gone within 24 hours, am now having to make more. Thank goodness there is lots of free kale in the garden. This was enjoyed on ALL ages from 5-70. Even the little kids who were saying "ew" when picking the kale and watching me make it absolutely loved it and I had to take them away!
