My favorite dried green bean is pink half-runners. dry them and place them in zip lock bags and place in freezer. I call them leather britches. Crock pot them with water and chiken broth, Ham optional. They are so tender and full of flavor.....

I dry squash, tomatoes, okra, and peppers. The flavor is REALLY intesified. I'll eat them as snacks or reconstitute later in cooking. Helps save on space in the freezer.

I spray a little olive oil on the okra and bake it for a few minutes before drying. The rest just go on the dehydrator-salt to taste on the squash.

My favorite snack mix:
Okra/bell pepper/tomato mix
