Pizza "sauce" kale chip coating (soak nuts the day before!!!) Better with a dehydrator!

1 and 1/4 cup raw unsalted macadamia nuts soaked overnight and drained

1/2 cup rounded raw unsalted cashew nuts soaked overnight and drained

1 large red bell pepper roughly chopped

3/4 cup sundried tomatoes soaked in water just to cover for a half hour (add sundried tomatoes with soaking water to blender)

2 large garlic cloves

2 TBSP lemon juice

1 and 1/4 tsp dried oregano

1/2 tsp fennel seeds

1/4 to 1/2 tsp dried basil

1/2 tsp red pepper flakes

1 tsp sea salt


Toss with kale (see instructions below)

1-2 heads of clean stemmed kale cut into 1-2 inch pieces(I use curly green kale)


Add all ingredients (put veggies first- helps blend better) to a high powered blender and blend til smooth. Toss blended "pizza sauce" with washed and stemmed kale til evenly coated, and dehydrate in dehydrator at  105-115 degrees overnight or til crisp , or oven on it's lowest temperature watch carefully to crisp and not burn. You may have to cycle the oven on and off to keep the temp low enough to crisp and not burn.
