Making Banana Chips

We have been using a lot of bananas lately – eating them fresh, Ellie eats them in her pouches each day, we use them in a lot of baking, making banana chips (dehydrated bananas), etc..
So, when I went to Woodmans this week when we were in town for an appt, I bought 5 or 6 bunches to last us a week or so. 😉
After we had paid & were walking out of the store, we noticed they had just put out a couple carts with 99 cent paper bags of bananas. I couldn’t pass up the opportunity, so I bought several bags also (I didn’t take them all! Only a small portion! There were a lot!)
When we got home & the kids were helping to unload the car, they said, “Oh look, bananas!” with the first bag…then found another & another…😂 “Oh, look, more bananas!” (Kind of reminds me of when we moved…”books!” “Oh, wow, more books!” Lol 😂
Anyhow, we took the opportunity to make some more banana chips. We (the kids who did the work, thank you kids!) filled all 3 dehydrators! I wish I had gotten some pictures of them working… too bad. (Yes, it may be weird that we have 3 dehydrators, but we use them a lot! One we’ve had for almost 20 years, a second we got for Christmas maybe 13 years ago & bought a few more trays for & the 3rd is an Excalibur that we bought for about half price a couple years ago. When we get a lot of apples (or bananas!), it’s nice to process them all at once.)
