Kale chips have been all the rage because they're the perfect healthy substitution for anyone with a potato chip addiction. This recipe makes them even better with chocolate, playing to our love of sweet and savory combinations.

INGREDIENTS

1 bunch kale, stems removed and roughly chopped into 1-inch pieces
1/4 cup dark chocolate
1 teaspoon olive oil
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/3 teaspoon chili powder

DIRECTIONS

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.

Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Spread the kale evenly onto the baking sheet and drizzle with the olive oil.

Bake for 20 minutes or until crispy. While the kale chips are baking, melt the dark chocolate over a double-boiler. When the kale chips are done, drizzle with the melted dark chocolate. Sprinkle with sea salt and chili powder and serve.
