Zucchini Jerky
If you haven't ever considered making zucchini jerky, I hope that you will try my recipe for it at least once. It's such a delicious snack to have on hand. Plus, it's so nutritious!
Ingredients:
Zucchinis (about 4-6, depending on their size)
4 tablespoons of vegetable, beef, or chicken bouillon granules or powder
2 tablespoons of liquid smoke
1/4 cup of water
1 teaspoon of onion powder
1 teaspoon of garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon of smoked paprika
Instructions:
In a large saucepan, add 4 tablespoons of beef bouillon granules or powder, 2 tablespoons of liquid smoke, 1/4 cup of water, 1 teaspoon of onion powder, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, and 1/4 teaspoon of smoked paprika. Bring the mixture to a boil, then turn off the burner. Stir well. Set aside.
Wash and scrub the zucchini well. Slice into half-inch slices lengthwise. Then place the slices in the marinade. Try to get as much of the marinade on each slice. Marinate for a few hours.
I don't cook my zucchini in the marinade, but you can if that's what you prefer to do.
Place the marinated zucchini on your dehydrator trays. Dry at 125 to 135 degrees or until the pieces of jerky are crispy. I generally let mine dehydrate for about 10 to 12 hours.
Store your zucchini jeky in an airtight container.
