Sweet Eats: Flipside Cafe
Ok, I don’t know how I’ve been oblivious to this place for so long considering I live a hop-skip away. This awesome eatery resides in the house of Miko's Italian Ice in the cold winter months, running from Oct 2012 thru Mar 2013. They serve fresh homemade comfort food (most locally sourced) and rotate new items into their short ‘n sweet menu. Their most recent rotation: a vegan spicy butternut squash soup with coconut milk. Heaven. Add free wifi and sweet vinyl tunes makes the trek in the below-teens Chi temps well worth it. Try the kale burger and a game of Connect Four while you chow down!

Cheezy Kale Chips

- 2 T nutritional yeast
- 1/4 cup red bell pepper
- 1 t ground garlic powder

- pinch of cayenne pepper
Preparation:
