  1. Cook chicken nuggets in air fryer per bag instructions.

  2. While nuggets are cooking, add kale to a large bowl and drizzle with some olive oil. Massage the olive oil into the kale for a minute or so.

Recipe Notes

I prefer the Just Bare Lightly Breaded Chicken Breast Bites because they are lower in carbs and taste very similar to Chick-fil-A chicken nuggets
