I used popcorn flavourings, rather than the yeast, to get the cheese flavour. Although the yeast is fine, I am not a fan of it! I tossed mine in a bit of olive oil, and salted lightly with sea salt, but will add garlic, or seasoning of sorts next time. I'm thinking about salad seasoning, like Mrs Dash or others. I get a seasoning that is for Greek dishes which would be great on the kale. I also used parchemnt on the sheet when baking, as I can mist with my oil mister, and sprinkle the seasoning on easily. Cleanup is a breeze.

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

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!

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.

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!

Loved it! Instead of just salt and nutritional yeast, I used the recipe for parmesan-like sprinkles: 1/2 cup yeast flakes 1/2 cup ground sesame seeds 2 t garlic powder 1 t onion powder 1 T chicken-like seasoning or salt 1 T lemon juice

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. :)

I'm sitting here eating the chips between keystrokes. I did make a substitution, though. Instead of plain kale, I soaked about about a cup of organic edamame beans (soy) for an hour, pureed them in the oil/yeast mixture, and then used the mix to coat the kale. This adds a little to the drying and crisping time (about 10 minutes). But I'm telling you, these are every bit as good as what people are paying $5.99/bag for at health food stores.
