Let's freeze dry some fresh bell peppers! Today we look at processing 15 pounds of pre-frozen bell peppers in our home freeze dryer to be used in future meals for our family. We transfer these freeze dried peppers into 1/2 gallon mylar bags, throw in a 300cc oxygen absorber and seal them up with our impulse sealer. Processing food this way preserves it for more than 25 years without diminishing the food of its nutritional value!  May God bless you and your families, Good2GoCo Family
