Almost Mid Week

Happy Tuesday night, hope your day was well.

I was able to sample some amazing kale chips today, they were great and had the perfect crunch.
Here is the recipe
Recipe type: snack, chip Prep time: 10 mins Cook time: 20 mins Total time: 30 mins
Ingredients
1 large bunch of kale (I used the curly kind)
1 tablespoon olive oil
sea salt
Instructions
Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.
Wash kale, remove the inner rib or stem, and tear into chip-size pieces. Make the pieces a little larger than you want the chips because they will shrink.
The kale must be thoroughly dried. I ran it through a salad spinner, laid it out on paper towels for 5 minutes, and then ran it through the spinner once more.
Put the kale pieces in a gallon plastic baggie and add the olive oil. “Massage” the kale to ensure that each piece has a coating of oil.
Arrange the kale in a single layer on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper (or you can place them right on the sheet). You may need a to use more than one sheet or bake in batches.
Sprinkle with sea salt. Use a bit less than you think you need because the kale shrinks and the salt intensifies.
Bake for about 20 minutes, until the kale is crisp and slightly browned.
Enjoy!

Here is my Wednesday plan:
-Early morning run
-Eggs, turkey, celery, peanut butter
-Quinoa salad with carrots, celery, cucumber, ground turkey
-Last 2 leftover BBQ chicken wings and peppers
-Grilled salmon and sweet potato fries
-Hopefully some quality time with my kettle bell tomorrow night

Right when I get done with this I plan to do some cooking for the rest of the week, here is what I am doing:
Cook Brown Rice
Soak black beans
Cook quinoa
Wash/cut peppers
Grill chicken


Good night and have a great Wednesday.
