These came together so quick that it is barely a 3-step process.
One of the CSA “keepers” is kale. I would have never purchased it on my own but it came bursting out of my farm box and just kept coming. After using it in soups and frittatas, I decided to try my hand at the “chips” that I would often come upon on the interwebs.
I washed a head of kale and cut out the main stem/rib with scissors, spread them on a baking sheet and brushed the leaves with olive oil.
After sprinkling with sea salt, I thought they would be too plain. I happened to have some asiago and I happen to love asiago so I threw that on top of the lot. After about 20 minutes in a low oven (about 250 deg. F.), the cheese had adhered to the leaves and they became crispy crunchy.
We ate them right off of the pan.

If you look very carefully this time of year, you might find evidence of the wee mischief makers lurking about.
They are very quick and could be anywhere…
Inside or out.
So keep watch over your gold coins
And your Irish Hooch
They can be quick little buggers
And Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
Details about the leprechaun hat can be found here. I used the teeny tiny mochimochi gnome pattern for the leprechaun.
