Kale Chips

~WARNING~

These are very addicting!!!

To make these wonderful yummy treats.. this is all you need:

1 Bunch kale (about 6 oz)
1 Tbsp Olive Oil
Sprinkle of Sea Salt (to taste)

Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Was and dry kale, remove center ribs and cut into 2 inch pieces (kale shrinks when you bake it so you may want to cut your pieces larger). Toss kale pieces in a bow with olive oil. Lay on baking sheet and sprinkle with sea salt. Bake for about 20 minuets, or until crisp.

Spinach Burgers

I made these the other day and they came out pretty good!!

Here is what you need to make these yummy burgers...

1 bag of thawed and well drained chopped spinach

2 egg whites

1 whole egg

1/4 c diced onion

1/2 c shredded cheese

1/2 c bread crumbs

1 tsp red pepper flakes

1 tsp salt

1/2 tsp garlic powder

Mix well in a bowl like this:

I sprayed my frying pan with non-stick spray.. Fried them till they had a golden crust

To serve I made a nice side salad with mixed greens and light ranch dressing.. Added some sliced almonds and dried cranberries.. Also add a slice of french bread with some butter... I found that slightly sauteing some red onions with some garlic made a wonderful addition to these burgers.. Also try adding some sour cream to the side.. 

**The only thing I would change about this recipe is....

1/2 tsp Red Flakes 

1 tsp Garlic Powder

Welcome to the kitchen...

Ethel and I decided to start this blog as a way to try and post information about the foods we come across.. Ethel (Amy) and I have been best friends for over 5 years and needless to say we have come across many cool things.. And 1 of those things is FOOD!!

I (Lucy) recently decided to go vegetarian... Yes I know sounds crazy.. BUT in the 3 weeks that I have been its not so bad.. And trust me, Im not missing meat.. Now, Im not a full vegetarian I will still eat chicken and fish just not red meat... 

So what will you find on this blog? Good thing you asked! I am a BIG fan of Pinterest SOO I am constantly finding new recipes to try.. And I love going to my local area farmers markets... Also my big obsession is cook books not sure why but Im always buying new ones.. So here you will find pictures of the foods we have made and tried..Recipes and tid bits.. What we found at the farmers market and so on... We will also give you our opinions on what we made and if it needs to be changed in any way..

So I hope you will join Ethel and I in our many wonderful adventures in the kitchen!!

Happy Cooking,

Lucy
