Mushroom Chips from a Dehydrator. Loved by Toddler

One of Dr. Fuhrman's top 5 food to eat are mushrooms. There are some that my toddler has been able to eat directly. Some from the farmers market. But the best way I found to get them in him is making Portobello Mushroom Chips! In our dehydrator. Set at 115 degrees, so it is still considered RAW.

Sometimes we will put a small dab of "So Good Miso Mayo" or Vegenaise (both Vegan).

Here is a video of our toddler loving them.


Note that they only last 1 day out. You need to keep them dry to keep them crispy. I put them in a bag or canister with rice at the bottom (or those "do not eat" silica packets that absorb moisture).

Also sometimes I mix the mushrooms in the leftover sauce from the Kale Chips (cashews, red pepper, garlic homemade sauce)

p.s. We own the Excalibur Food Dehydrator 3526T, 5 tray , which has a timer on it. Most of their models don't unless you buy it from them on ebay or directly. Resellers get the non timer model, which is a pain. You could buy a $15 timer at Home Depot I guess.
