Equipment
- Salad spinner
- Rimmed baking sheets (2)
Ingredients
- 12 ounces 340 g kale, stems and ribs removed, torn into small pieces, cleaned, and thoroughly spun dry
- 1 tablespoon 15 ml extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon 15 ml white balsamic or apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon 8 g nutritional yeast
