Dried Orange Slices - Yummy

[smiley]

Take an organic orange and slice it thin. Keep the peel and pith on too...don't discard anything. Put the slices into your dehydrator for about 2-3 days (no teflex sheets needed). It will become crunchy and chewy and oh so delicious. The more you chew it, the more the flavor comes out. I feel like I'm getting good nutrition eating the peel and pith too. :)

It reminds me of "candy fruit jell slices" that I used to love.

You can use it in recipes too. I put a couple slices into a triple berry pie and it added an orangy perfumy yumminess. I also added to a peach smoothie.

I'm going to try dehydrating lemons and limes too. I"m not sure they will taste good by themself but they could be good in recipes.

ive always wondered why dried orange peices werent used big time in trail mixes

It takes 3 days at 105 in my dehydrator for food to come out crunchy. I just made eggplant bacun and after 3 days in the dehydrator, it is crunchy and perfect bacun texture, which just a touch of oiliness. I used Ani Phyo's recipe and it is delicious.
