Equipment

  • Blender (preferably a jug/blender with a pitcher)
  • Deep bowl
  • Salad spinner
  • Food dehydrator or air fryer

Ingredients
  

  • 360 g (about 2 packages)
  • 1 medium tomato
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1/2 onion
  • 1 cup cashews
  • 1/2 tsp salt (celtic is the best)
  • 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
  • 1 tsp apple cider vinegar or lemon juice

Instructions
 

  • Wash the kale leaves thoroughly, remove the tough stems, and dry the leaves using a salad spinner or paper towels. The leaves should be completely dry so the dressing sticks well.
  • In a jug blender, first blend the chopped tomato, then add the rest of the ingredients.
  • Transfer the kale to a large bowl and mix thoroughly with the prepared sauce, making sure every leaf is evenly coated.
  • In an air fryer: I used the highest temperature setting ( 90°C), which took about 3-4 to fully dry.
    In a dehydrator: Arrange the leaves in a single layer on the trays and dehydrate at about 75°C for 8–10 hours, until completely crispy.
  • After completely cooling, store the chips in an airtight glass jar or container in a dry place to maintain their crispiness.
