Heather Loreen Makes Kale Chips


I love sharing my home recipes. They are the secrets to my personal success!
The very first recipe I tried making while going to nutrition school was kale chips! I couldn't believe how easy the recipe was and I only needed a few ingredients.  I must admit I was skeptical that baking leaves would be a tasty treat. But after mastering the speedy recipe, and finding that kale cooks QUICK, I tasted the crispy greens! Salty, citrusy and so light! I was hooked!!

 After baking my first batch I gave my final product to the ultimate judge, my meaty, non veggie boyfriend!  He tasted the first chip cautiously and to his surprise the flaky green was scrumptious! Not only was he eating veggies, but assisting me in the kitchen too!  

To try making your own batch of Kale Chips by following my first video demonstration!

Oktobert Zest!

Fall is brewing! A great way to enter the new season is to embrace the new smells and flavors!
Working with the mother nature's peak produce, will get your body balanced with the climate and temperature changes.

Here are some Fall produce picks for the seasonal symptoms:
Skin becomes dryer and the need for more root veggies that boost the skin with vitamin A, try sweet potato, carrot and pumpkin.
Temperatures are starting to wind down and can create a chill. Keep the body warm with blood circulating ingredients like garlic, onion and ginger.
Still salivating for some sweetness?? Apples and pomegranates are natures candy! Make a batch of apple cider add some cinnamon for extra spice! MMMMMMMmmmmmm!

Find out what is in season in your neck of the woods!

Also, eating in-season keeps the produce local, therefore its less expensive!
