Ingredients

2 large heads curly kale

¼ cup tahini

¼ cup lemon juice

¼ cup + 2 tablespoons grapeseed or olive oil

2 teaspoons sriracha or to taste

½ cup nutritional yeast

¼ teaspoon sea salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 200 degrees F.
  2. Rinse all of the kale leaves and pat them dry with a paper towel. Remove the leaves from the stems, keeping the leaves large. Discard the kale stems, feed them to your dog, or put them in smoothies.
  3. In a small bowl (or blender), combine the remaining ingredients and mix until a thick paste is formed.
  4. Use your hands to massage the "nacho cheese" mixture into the leaves, covering both sides. Place leaves in a single layer on two large baking sheets.
  5. Bake for 1 hour, flip the leaves, then bake for an additional 45 minutes to 1 hour.
  6. Snack to your heart's delight!
