My mother gave me the celery leaves she cut from her celery over the weekend. I dehydrated them for several uses.
I will use them to add flavor and color to soups, saute them in with onions for many recipes, and they can be added to salads also.
I did some quick research after dehydrating my celery leaves, and this is one vegetable I will want to continue to buy organic from now on. It is in the top two of the "Dirty Dozen" list.
My dehydrated, garden grown jalapeno peppers came in handy over the weekend also.
I cooked up a pot of cabbage and bean soup, and added about 4 crushed rings of these peppers. I didn't have a recipe really, I simply used broth, water, cooked dry beans (whatever I had at the time, which was navy and pinto), cooked up some fresh picked Swiss chard, added chopped cabbage, and even about 3 Tbsp. of our canned Zucchini Salsa. I used garlic and dehydrated jalapeno's for flavor. It turned out to be delicious and healthy.

Have you done a post on dehydrating? I'd like to read it.
