Sour Cream & Onion Kale Chips

My family just CAN'T get enough kale chips and today we tried a whole new funky flavor - sour cream and onion kale chips. They are totally vegan. Totally raw. And EXTREMELY healthy and delicious.

After a friend of mine was telling me about her favorite onion dip, I decided to make kale chips with an onion kick instead of the usual cheesy flavor. 

Basically, her sauce is a blend of water, cashews, sea salt, and onion. 

I threw that in a blender with nutritional yeast and miso, for the cheesy/nutty flavor. 

You can get creative and add some dill or some spices as well.

Kale Chip Instructions

You will start by soaking the cashews and cleaning and chopping the kale into large chip size pieces. Next you will put all the sour cream sauce ingredients into a blender. Blend until creamy.

You'll want to then massage the sauce into clean pieces of largely chopped kale. Once each kale piece is well coated, you will put it onto the dehydrator trays. And dehydrate overnight.

The result is a crunchy, crispy sour cream and onion kale snack!

They will last a week in an air-tight container. You'll probably have some extra sauce. It makes a great dressing for any dark green salad. ENJOY. Beware: they are addicting. Not as wonderful as the cheesy ones I normally make, but a good diversion.
