Being the perpetual experimenter, I now have a cucumber sliced and in the dryer to try them as chips... I never heard of it, but thought, what the heck... might be good... Will let everyone know.<<<

Why stop there, carrot strips, turnip slices, etc...

I like the raw turnip, so might like it as a chip.

This fall, you can test the fruit slices...LOL

Hmmm, maybe if they were pretty young ones... Since flavors intensify when they are dried, they may be pretty strong if they were fully mature. LOL

Oh, cucumber chips are terrific... Just enough cucumber taste to make them really interesting.

Of course the next step will be to try some marinades and seasonings. So far we have been eating all we make without even missing the salt!

Now, that sounds interesting. Being pretty watery, I wonder how they will dehydrate.
