I'm interested in a crispy crunchy snack, but one without nuts or oils.
Has anyone made or found a recipe involving pureed veggies, dehydrated into crackers?
I saw one that was only tomatoes, but I'd love to know about more possibilities.
Maybe I could puree a bunch of veggies (but add water, so that it WILL blend..), pour onto the teflex and dehydrate?
I'm a newbie into the whole dehydrating thing :-D

Hey smiling - check this out. I made them minus the hemp seeds, and used sesame. They are really crunchy and good! I searched and searched, but thought they were called Triscuts! Duh! I knew they were one of those name-brands:

Yes, these are really good. They do remind me of Ritz or similar crackers. For some reason they get really crispy when using zucchini.
I don't remember if I left out the salt. I do remember they were a tiny bit bland. Maybe a little more salt?

Mmmm but again, I'd like something without nuts :-\
Nuts don't really digest well for me :-\
I think I'll just experiment :)

An answer to my question!
I found this recipe on Living-foods.com
Basil crackers
by Sophie Quinn
carrot or vegetable pulp from juicing (about 5 cups)
1 clove crushed garlic
1/2 cup basil, chopped or dried handful cylantro, chopped
2 ripe tomatos, chopped
1 cup (or more) sprouted and crushed nuts (almonds, sesame, sunflower...etc.)
sea salt, dulse or braggs to taste
Use a spatula to spread over teflex sheet in dehydrator or pan in oven and dehydrate for about 8 hrs or until completely dry. Wonderful with guacamole or other dips! Also a great way to make convience food out of compost.
I think I can do that, but just add more pulp than nuts.

And this:
Angel's Veggie Chips
1 onion
2 celery sticks
1 green bell pepper
1 tomato
1 big carrot
1/2 cup of green peas
1/2 cup sesame seeds
1/2 cup corn
salt, oregano, pepper, whatever spices you are in a mood for......
Blend it, not like a puree, but kinda chunky... Put on a teflex sheet and turn the dehydrator on 105 F.. I usually do in the evening and in the morning your chips are ready!
