Yep. Slice the melon about a quarter-inch thick and dry it in your dehydrator (I have an old 5-tray Excalibur) until it’s well-dried but not brittle. After it cools, put the pieces in Zip-loc bags and store them in a dark place. Dried cantaloupe will keep for years, but I usually eat it all before then.

This is good for other melons, too, such as honeydew or Crenshaw. I imagine that watermelon would work, but I haven’t tried that yet.

I guess if it works with juicy mangos, why not?
