Kale chips are such a delicious treat, and are so easy to make! The only thing that I wish I could do differently is make larger batches, but my dehydrator is too small. I only have a 3 tray model, which is great for saving space, but I wish I had bought a bigger one!
First, place the sauce ingredients into a blender and purée until smooth! Using soaked cashews will really help make this sauce super smooth and also easier to digest.
Set the Habanero Cheese aside until ready to use. Next wash the kale very well and place it in a mixing bowl!
Spread the kale leaves out on a mesh dehydrator sheet and dehydrate for 6-8 hours at 118 F. Make sure they are completely dried before taking them out of the dehydrator.
