What food and nutrition blog doesn’t have a recipe for kale chips???  These aren’t your average kale chips!  I was inspired to make kettle corn kale chips after our trip to the fair this past week.  Walking through the sea of fried twinkies, slushies, fried dough, ice cream and candy apples we found a somewhat healthy fair treat!  It was a local vendor who was selling all natural kettle corn with four simple ingredients, sea salt, sugar, olive oil and popcorn.  I took these ingredients and turned them into kale chips!
