Baked Spinach Chips

One bag of baby spinach

Salt

Herbs of your choosing (I tried basil, but experiment and see what you like!)

Pepper, if you like

Cover a baking sheet with parchment paper and lay the spinach in a single layer on top.

Sprinkle with salt, pepper, herbs…

Bake in an oven preheated to 350 for around 7 minutes. Maybe a bit more, maybe a bit less. They should turn crispy and wafer thin.

Carefully peel off the paper and enjoy.

Some readers have had trouble with the spinach sticking. It’s important that you use parchment paper on your baking sheets, as stated in the recipe, to avoid this. Wax paper and tin foil won’t work, and obviously a bare baking sheet won’t do it, either. You can find parchment paper in most good grocery stores or baking shops.

Easy enough — he’s created an error-filled list of “ineligible voters”, which targets thousands of Democratic and Hispanic voters.

Here’s how it would work.

These are raccoon dogs, an Asian species related to foxes. Raccoon dogs are being farmed in China so their fur can be used to make the fake ugg boots. On fur farms, many of them are still alive and struggling desperately when workers hang them by their tails to skin them.

Workers stomp on the necks and heads of animals who struggle to allow a clean cut. When raccoon dogs are dragged from cages they’re slammed repeatedly to the ground before being skinned. Animals watch helplessly as workers make their way down the row.

After being skinned alive, some survive for as long as 10 minutes, blinking in pain on a pile of other bodies.

Is there a skeleton in your closet?
Say No! to the cruel and barbaric slaughter of millions of animals around the world for their skin. Say No! to fur coats, fur collars, fur trim, fur trinkets & fur cat toys. Help expose the truth about fur and spread the word until we close down the international fur trade forever.

They’re ugly anways
