Dried Cucumber Chips

These are SOOOOOO good, I can't stop eating them !!!!  I'm going to end up eating the whole batch in one sitting !!!!   I did not dip these in lemon juice first so they turned a little darker, if you do not want the chips to turn dark, dip them in lemon juice before drying.   But they are still REALLY good even though they turned a little darker !!!

Ingredients:

cucumber, sliced 
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp lemon pepper
1/4 tsp black pepper


Directions:
Put the sliced cucumber on the mesh sheets on dehydrator trays, in a single layer and so the slices do not overlap.  

Mix the garlic powder, lemon pepper and black pepper together.  Sprinkle the slices with the mixture.

If your dehydrator has a temperature control, set it to 135 degrees.   The average drying time is 5-10 hours.  The drying time is affected by the thickness of the slices, the humidity, the moisture content, how much is being dried.  So you will need to check every once in a while and see how they are drying.   

I have a Nesco-American Harvest Gardenmaster Dehydrator
which I ABSOLUTELY LOVE.
