Making Vegan Jerky ...

Did you ever have a dinner guest who brought you a giant watermelon as a house gift?
🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️ I did!
I tackled half of the watermelon alone with a spoon and I gave in the white flag. Whilst holding onto my full watermelon belly I had a thought, I wonder what it would be like to dehydrate a watermelon? 🤔Amazingly enough it existed! Vegan watermelon jerkies!!! 
I marinated the watermelon in Lime, Smoked paprika, Onion powder and Cayenne pepper.
Which then I dehydrated in my dehydrator for 24 hours at 70 degrees celsius.
​OMG this turned out amaaaazing. 
Of course dehydrating for 24 hours ins't something we can do or want to do often.
But do it once, you must try.

For those who are concerned about electricity cost, please refer here. This should give you a little idea and a little relief to try this amazing recipe just once 😉.
