Kale Popcorn

½ pound kale (or one bunch)

Cooking spray

¼ cup nutritional yeast (has a savory, almost Parmesan-like flavor)

Bag of plain salted popcorn


Preheat oven to 350. Tear stemmed kale leaves into pieces.

Coat 2 rimmed baking sheets with cooking spray. Arrange kale in single layer. Lightly coat kale with cooking spray and massage gently into kale. Bake 10-15 minutes until crispy, rotating trays halfway through cooking. Season with salt and cool (these kale chips are delicious just like this!).

In a food processor, pulse kale until finely ground. Pulse in ¼ cup nutritional yeast to combine.

To a large brown paper bag, add 8 cups plain salted popcorn and lightly coat with cooking spray. Sprinkle popcorn with kale mixture and shake vigorously.

Wow, your Kale Popcorn recipe sounds like a tasty twist on a classic snack! I've never thought of using kale in popcorn before, but it sounds like a genius idea. I'm always on the lookout for healthier snack options, and this seems like a winner. Thanks for sharing the detailed recipe and the mouthwatering picture—I can almost taste the crunch!

AND, Gimb, the kale chips themselves are really delicious! Please post photos when you try this.
