Zucchini-Grape Fruit Strips

[baymule]

I made zucchini candy day before yesterday with frozen grape juice. I saved the juice and used it today. I simmered 4 giant zucchini, chopped small, until translucent. Then I drained the zucchini and puréed it in the blender. I put a can of frozen grape juice concentrate in the purée and stirred it in.

I put 1 1/2 cups purée per dryer rack. It’s in the dehydrator now. I got 5 full trays and a cup on a 6th tray.

Tastes just like grape juice! Our 3 year old grand daughter loves them!

@baymule I love zucchini, but this just didn't sound good to me. Silly too because I've used zucchini in all kinds of things. I love it's versatility! But I finally pulled it up to see how you did this, and it looks great. I bet I'd love them. It's silly sometimes overcoming those first eeeewww reactions to something I'm sure I'd really enjoy. There's just something about the words zucchini and candy together... It's basically like fruit leather or fruit rolls, right?

I really like your dryer racks. Mine are much smaller. I'd probably have to make mine in an oven if I tried something like this. Is that parchment paper underneath?

They are delicious! I bought solid sheets with my dehydrator.
