Well, whatever kind of kale I had did not turn into chips. I buy it pre-shredded, in a huge bag. I cooked it for 22 minutes, and while it got crispy, it basically is like a bunch of baked veggies, not chips. Perhaps I used a bit too much olive oil, but, I think I will try the Lacinto kale and also go to the natural foods store and see if there is another commercial brand. While I sometimes make baked tortilla chips from corn tortillas, those come out like real chips and I would say my kale experiment was a big fail.
Not sure how much effort I want to put into this.
