Wondering if anyone makes homemade Jerky or dehydrates zucchini or apples ?? Any advise? Theres a dehydrator at bed bath and beyond, that's kinda cheap- cant afford alot right now

I believe you can dehydrate with a regular oven it just takes a bit longer. Google search dehydrate in oven. No extra cost :-P

This appeals to me for the lower sodium content I love Jerky but the sodium is sooo high in some...

I too looked at those machines. I think at least you'll need a Jerky gun or cookie press w/slotted nozzel.

Take pics if you make!

It looked veryyyyy complicated ! I did find one for the microwave and that seemed better! I may have to see -- what phase would veggies dried be in???

I use and love my dehydrator! Its really old but still works. I have done strawberries, banana, pineapples, apples, mangos, baby peppers and marinated mushrooms..... and that was just this week. They are great to throw into my snack bag for work.

I make my own in the oven. It is fun to do. I get sesina from the Mexican market, marinate in teriyaki and pepper and a little bit of salt overnight. I posted a fancier recipe too.

It comes out so good!

The picture is how you hang it in the oven, by sticking a toothpick through the top of the meat and hanging on the oven rack.

Two suggestions: get an Excalibur. Best dehydrator around and you can buy used on craigslist / eBay. Second, be sure to stay hydrated when eating dehydrated foods. The lack of Water content means you will need to drink extra water.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
