Chocolate Coconut Kale Chips! :

Chocolate Coconut Kale Chips:

1 bunch of kale, washed and big stems removed
1/2 c cashews, soaked
1/2 c agave/honey/maple syrup (combo of one or any)
1/3 c cocoa powder
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp cinnamon

Optional and omit if you donât like coconut flavored items:

1/4 c coconut flakes (unsweetened or sweetened)
2 tbsp coconut oil

Directions:

Soak cashews in water for at least an hour (4-6 hours ideal). Remove the soaked cashews and add all the other ingredients (except the kale) to a Vita-Mix or blender. Blend until mixture is smooth to make the chocolate coconut coating. Pour this mixture over a bowl of washed, de-stemmed kale leaves and toss to coat.

Transfer coated kale to a parchment-lined cookie sheet and bake at 300F for about 20 minutes. Flip, and bake for another 10 minutes, give or take. Watch them closely because the honey/agave/maple mixture can burn quickly and itâs hard to tell with the dark chocolate color if they are burning or not. Let your nose and common sense be your guide. Remove crispy chips one by one if necessary.

You could dehydrate these chips, too, but because many people donât have dehydrators, I purposefully made these in the oven.

Could anyone suggest any low calorie crisps?

I'm generally a pretty healthy person, I try to eat a balanced diet and get my 5 a day and so forth, however lately seen as college is now over, yet a lot of my friends are still doing exams I have found myself at a loose end, and boredom/ celebratory eating a lot. As I said, I;m pretty healthy, but crisps are my ultimate food vice, so to avoid being TOO unhealthy, and getting to pudgy I was wondering if anyone could suggest any low cal alternatives? I need them to be available in the UK, seen as that's where I live, but other than that, I like trying new things, and it would be good to have a bit of guilt free eating :). Also, any low cal snacks in general would be helpful :), I'm quite a snacker :P. Thank you for your help! :)
