Kale chips have been my latest go-to snack. They satisfy my craving for something crunchy.
I love that I can down a whole bunch of kale in one sitting without feeling like I am trying to do something healthy. My daily green drink on the other hand, sometimes feels forced.
Other recipes with sriracha are my Sriracha Tofu Fries and Homemade Sriracha Hummus.
Other vegan snacks you might like are my Sriracha Roasted Chickpeas, Baked Vegan Onion Rings, and Baked Tofu Fries.

🔪 Instructions
Step 1: Wash and dry the kale. Remove the stems and break into pieces.
Step 2: Add olive oil, sriracha sauce, nutritional yeast, and salt to a large mixing bowl.
Step 3: Whisk.
Step 4: Toss kale pieces in the seasoning mixture.
Step 5: Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake until crispy.
Should I Remove The Stems?
Yes, you'll want to remove the stems, including the center rib. They are tough and chewy.
How to Remove The Stems
Using a knife, cut right next to the stem on both sides. You can also hold the leaf in your hand and strip the leaves off away from you.
Ways To Use Nutritional Yeast
I use nutritional yeast anywhere I want a cheesy flavor.
