Air Fryer Parmesan Kale Chips
Oh, kale no…
These kale chips couldn’t be more simple or easy to make. They’re really one of my all time favorite snacks too. Other than being ridiculously cheap, they also end up being low calorie, vegetarian, gluten free, and keto friendly! The fun doesn’t stop there though, they’re also made with right at 5 ingredients. 5 whole simple ingredients that you probably already have on hand.
I used to be excited to see kale chips at the store, until I realized what they were charging for them. Excuse me? 8 bucks for a box of cheesy kale? No thanks! Kale started off as a bland green that was used to decorate buffets and salad bars. Now that it’s trendy, the prices have taken gotten out of control. So, I’ll make my own kale chips.

Read MoreHawaiian Lunchbox
So back about a week ago when I was off on my ‘girls camping trip’ we all stopped by a local grocery store there. They happened to be handing out samples of some new ‘aloha turkey’ in the deli section which you KNOW I immediately fell in love with. I knew pretty much instantly that I was going to have to get my hands on some of that turkey once I got home and to make something fun with it.
There you go! That’s the inspiration behind this Hawaiian Lunchbox!…
