{kale, to the movies}

It's been a while since Big Red has had an ice-stash.

We had an ice storm the other day. Of course, we didn't listen to the news and went out for Restaurant Week with some friends.

I'm glad we did, because the food was amazing at Ruth's Chris. Their signature is that they serve the best prime steak, sizzling hot. For meat, the last bite is just as warm and delicious as the first.

We were lucky and didn't have any trouble with the ice. It wasn't hard to believe that there were over fifty wrecks in the areas affected; we saw lots of cars on the side of the road.

The next night it was still a little icy since the temps dropped and the roads were still wet. So, we rented the movie Ted, free of course thanks to the same mad skills I used on these movie nights. It was an alright movie. It was a little foul, but still pretty funny. I also made some tasty kale chips to go with it! They are salty and fill a popcorn craving, but don't add empty calories.

ready for the oven!

ingredients.
Kale {about 2 cups, or however much you want to eat}
Olive Oil {about 1 tbsp}
Sea salt/desired spices {a few squirts of lemon juice is nice too}

I.

Preheat oven to 350. Wash and dry kale, break into chip sized pieces.

II.

Drizzle kale with olive oil, and sprinkle lightly with sea salt and any other spices.  

III.

Pop into the oven until crisped, about 10 minutes. You want it to be dark green, not it's natural color or brown. 

delicious movie snack!

Enjoy! Let me know if there is another recipe that you like better!
