Sounds yummy! I may have to invest in a home dehydrator at some point.

Out of 8 Oz of canned chiles, I got 16.62 grams of dried chiles. That works out to 93% water. The main difference between the canned chiles and the ones that I get out of the garden is that I remove almost all of the seeds when I clean the chiles. While I was at it, I dehydrated some cans of Mother Mary’s Red and Green Pepper Strips. These are canned sweet Italian pepper strips that I found next to the Pizza ingredients at Wally World. These dry well because they aren’t chopped as small as the chiles. When I consider the time that it takes to dehydrate them, I wouldn’t hesitate to take the cans if I was going on a short trip. On the other hand, I can premix the dried chiles with my other dried ingredients and have less fiddly work to do when I get to where I’m going.

Is this correct? That’s a lot of bacon bits. The ones that I’ve got are 2.5 Oz to the package.
