Dehydrating Peppers takes a few easy steps and are great for use in stir-fries, and omelets, just to name a few dishes! Frozen varieties can be used too!

Try this fantastic dish which consists of onions, peppers, zucchini and squash. It's known as ratatouille ... this dish will fill your kitchen with fantastic aromas of the Mediterranean! Try slicing your peppers in different ways: in rings, "fat" slices, or thin slices ... and diced!

If using the frozen variety, ignore step 1.

1. Remove the stem and seeds and slice into 1/4" strips.
2. Arrange the slices on your food dehydrator trays, making sure they don't overlap.
3. Turn on your food dehydrator and set the temperature between 125°F and 135°F (or per your food dehydrator's instructions).

• When fully dehydrated, they will be leathery.
• Drying time: between 4-12 hours.
• Please remember to rotate your trays for even drying.

In my side-by-side photos (below) you'll see that I have made three separate bags with a combination of yellow, green, and red peppers – perfect for a stir-fry or omelet! Simply re-hydrate! They were originally store-bought three-to-a-pack, and that photo shows nine peppers total, so you can see how much room you can save by dehydrating them!

The blue packet which is a 100cc oxygen pack, in the photo at right, below, shows one vacuum-packed bag!
