The wife and I bought a freeze dryer last year and what I was scared of has happened. I spent $1800 used it for 3 months and then pretty much forgot about it. Well it is time to dust it back off and start making some more meals. Unfortunately there is a pretty good learning curve to this freeze dryer thing. Out of five or six recipes I have found one that is great and one that's ok. So I am on the look for some freeze dried recipes.

I figured that 100 ish meals would pay for the machine and save me in the long run. In addition to being allergic to corn which is in 95% of commercial freeze dried food. I am ready to get the machine fired back up and start making some good meals.

Anyone out there that has started this journey? Any websites that you have found useful? I have found The Hungry Hiker and she has some good looking recipes but you can never have to many.

TIA

Following this one. My wife did the same thing. We’ve made a few meals but nothing spectacular yet. It’s time for this thing to start paying for itself. Haha. So far she’s done lots of tasty stuff but not enough substantial meals IMO.
