Wondering if anyone makes homemade Jerky or dehydrates zucchini or apples ?? Any advise? Theres a dehydrator at bed bath and beyond, that's kinda cheap- cant afford alot right now

I believe you can dehydrate with a regular oven it just takes a bit longer. Google search dehydrate in oven. No extra cost :-P

This appeals to me for the lower sodium content I love jerky but the sodium is sooo high in some...

I too looked at those machines. I think at least you'll need a jerky gun or cookie press w/slotted nozzel.

Take pics if you make!

It looked veryyyyy complicated ! I did find one for the microwave and that seemed better! I may have to see -- what phase would veggies dried be in???

I use and love my dehydrator! Its really old but still works. I have done strawberries, banana, pineapples, apples, mangos, baby peppers and marinated mushrooms..... and that was just this week. They are great to throw into my snack bag for work.

I make my own in the oven. It is fun to do. I get sesina from the Mexican market, marinate in teriyaki and pepper and a little bit of salt overnight. I posted a fancier recipe too.

It comes out so good!

The picture is how you hang it in the oven, by sticking a toothpick through the top of the meat and hanging on the oven rack.

Two suggestions: get an Excalibur. Best dehydrator around and you can buy used on craigslist / eBay. Second, be sure to stay hydrated when eating dehydrated foods. The lack of water content means you will need to drink extra water.
