Buying Healthy Dehydrated Fruits and Veggies

It's late in the year to begin gardening, at least in the northern Hemisphere. Sometimes, a shortcut is necessary while biding your time. So while you pore over your gardening catalogs, choosing which berry bushes or fruit trees to plant, you might consider adding the following to your stores:

I found http://www.justtomatoes.com/ (NOW: https://www.shopkarensnaturals.com/  when my then baby was beginning to eat solid foods. He tried all kinds, and he expressed a preference to jarred food. Vehemently. A friend mentioned the dried mixed vegetables she'd found at a local health food store, so I picked up a small tub. Liked what I saw: no added ingredients other than the fruit or veggie. Not even sulfur! After Weslee saw me eating the mixture of dried corn, carrots, peas and tomatoes, he dug right in.

We pretty much placed a regular order for Weslee of soynuts (they don't do those any more, or freeze-dried tofu), peas, blackberries, blueberries and mango. I haven't seen the blackberries in a while, but they have added a whole line of powdered fruit that I use in smoothies and refrigerator-oats (peach, banana, etc).

We don't rehydrate any of these so we're sure to drink lots of water.

It's really difficult to calculate serving size but we consider a serving to be a small "Dixie cup" of the fruit and peas, or one tablespoon of fruit powder.

Makes me feel good ... well, better ... about his health.
 

If you don't have enough bushes, trees and other plants to satisfy your fruit needs, you should check out their site. It's not as good as growing it yourself, but will do in a pinch.
