All you need is about 3/4 cup of sunflower seeds, whatever spices you want, some onion, garlic, lemon juice, and red bell pepper. I also used some coconut aminos, which is soy free seasoning sauce.
First blend the sunflower seeds in a small food processor until they become a creamy nut butter. Then add spices, lemon juice, aminos, and enough water that it becomes runny like a creamy dressing. Then add onion, crushed garlic, red bell pepper, sea salt, and anything else you want and blend it all together in a blender until everything is one.
Then put it into a big bowl and add pieces of kale, mixing it and covering every piece very well. Let it all marinate for as long as you want. I think I kept them in for around 20 minutes, but I'm not sure. Then when you feel like it, arrange the pieces on a non-stick sheet in a dehydrator and dry until crispy and fluffy. We dried ours overnight. And they were amazing. Haha :)

Confession time....during a break while 'working' so hard I logged onto your blog, got a glimpse of these babies and my mouth literally dropped open. I almost bought cheddar kale chips the other day but could not do it because it had rennet. Another kind, a hemp kale chip looked ok, but not being familiar with the ingredient trademark Engevita, I decided to wait until investigated. So this is magnificent, to post not only this amazing treat, but also how to make them; thank you very much!!! (Being picky is a must in North America - as you and your sister are fully aware). On the cruise last year my parents - who are not on this year - were laughing because artificial sweeteners were taken off all the tables). <3 <3 <3
