My New Dehydrator...

I had borrowed my son's dehydrator this summer.... then in the mail came a gift from him....our very own dehydrator.... I put it to good use....we picked the extra beets , some carrots and extra  peppers....

My first time drying veggies...(the amount really gets small:) Before the frost comes...we will dry what we haven't used in the garden and have them for stews, soups...and veggie chips !

Then I tried some fruit leather...

A few turned out great... I made some too thin...so we will have peach leather chips:)

 This week I'll try some Pear leather....

  2. what a great way to preserve the garden for winter. i know nothing about dehydrating, do the veggies plump up when you use them later?? they sure do get small!!
