Guest guest Posted October 14, 2005 Report Share Posted October 14, 2005 I got a new food dehydrator and ahve been making fruit snacks with it. I take these dehydrated fruits to work for small snacks. These are healthy and a great alternative to those egg muffins. I encourage everyone to try a food dehydrator if possible, it takes a little getting used to but is worth it. Vijay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 14, 2005 Report Share Posted October 14, 2005 The kidlet says ya gotta do strawberries. They are like eating candy and they melt in your mouth! Her second favorite is doing fruit leathers in the dehydrator. Kids love them and if you make your own they aren't full of garbage like corn syrup and other weird stuff!

But still good to eat the fruits as such. Vijay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 15, 2005 Report Share Posted October 15, 2005 Hi Vijay We love our dehydrator here! Especially for all of the hot peppers and herbs we grow in the garden. We make our own seasoning with them and also use our peppers all year round this way. Unfortunately we no longer do fruit due to all of the hot peppers we've put in there over the years. I also use it for drying veggies to make soups in the winter.

Guest guest Posted October 17, 2005 Report Share Posted October 17, 2005 Hi Jo It is! It is basically a machine that has a circular base. You have 5-8 plastic trays that have vents in them. They are about 1'2 " - 1 " thick and stack on top of one another and then a plastic top. You arrange your veggies/fruite/herbs etc on the trays, stack them and then turn it on. Hot air circulates through the trays and out the top and dries your food. I was going to copy a link of a picture, but they are all quite long. But i found a couple of nice one at target.com by searching " dehydrator " . BB Nikki , " jo " <jo.heartwork@g...> wrote: > > Hi Vijay/Nikki > > I've never heard of a dehydrator.
