Essential survival fuel: Freeze-dried organic kale packed with nutrients

If you’re new to prepping and survival, preserving food at home and starting your food storage can be a little overwhelming. After all, an endeavor like this usually requires a lot of your time, money and effort.

However, having food on hand is crucial to your survival plan. (h/t to SurvivalSullivan.com)

If you have a home garden, you can save money by preserving excess crops so you have access to fruits and vegetables year-round. Home canning and food drying/dehydration are two great methods of food preservation. But if you don’t have the time or extra space to process food at home, you can also make things easier for yourself by purchasing freeze-dried products like berries or kale.

Always check specific instructions for what you’re dehydrating because different foods have different dehydrating temperatures and times. Some foods should be cooked or blanched before dehydrating.

Best foods to dehydrate

Here are some of the most nutritious items to dehydrate:

Fruit

Store-bought dried fruit can be expensive but making DIY dried fruit at home is easy.

If you have a home garden, you can also save money by planting your favorite fruits. Alternatively, you can buy cheaper fruit that is on sale.

Here are some of the best fruits to dehydrate:

• Apples
• Bananas
• Berries
• Grapes
• Nectarines
• Pineapples
• Plums
• Strawberries
• Watermelon

Herbs

Many culinary herbs are easy to grow and dehydrate. And because herbs are generally expensive but relatively easy to grow, you can save more by growing and dehydrating your own herbs.

Here are some of the best herbs to dehydrate:

• Basil
• Chamomile
• Cilantro
• Lemon balm
• Mint
• Parsley
• Sage
• Yarrow

Peppers

Peppers are versatile and they can be pickled, pressure canned, or dehydrated. If you make dehydrated peppers, it takes less work and the peppers don’t get soft like pressure canned peppers do.

Additionally, chili peppers can be ground into powder after drying. (Related: Essential spices and herbs for your food stockpile.)

Tomatoes

Sun-dried tomatoes are delicious, but in many areas around the globe, they can’t be dried with just sunlight.

Note that tomato skins left over from canning can also be dehydrated, powdered and added to meals for extra flavor and as a natural thickener.

Vegetables

If you have a home garden or stockpile from your local farmers market, dehydrating vegetables is an affordable and easy way to add tons of nutritious foods to your pantry.

Many vegetables are delicious when dry or rehydrated.

Here are some of the best vegetables to dehydrate:

• Broccoli
• Green beans
• Onions
• Pumpkin
• Summer squash
• Zucchini
