GreenSmoothieGirl.com reader Tonya C. donated a recipe for yummy “chips” (I call them “crisps” because they’re really light and airy) made in the dehydrator. I have significantly altered the recipe. Brewer’s Yeast is a good way for vegans to obtain Vitamin B12.

Cheesy Kale/Collard Crisps

1/3 cup cashews, soaked 1-2 hours (optionally)
2 Tbsp. lemon juice
3 Tbsp. water
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 tsp. Original Himalayan Crystal Salt
¼ cup nutritional (or Brewer’s) yeast
2 green onions (including the green part)
½ tsp. chili powder
1/4 tsp. cayenne
1/4 tsp. turmeric
1 clove garlic

Freshly ground black pepper to taste

Blend all ingredients well in Total Blender. Press one side of 20-30 small kale or collard leaves (stems removed) in mixture and dry them for 4-6 hours in Excalibur dehydrator (until crispy).

Enjoy!
