Dehydrated Soup

My dehydrator is running constantly this harvest season.  I'm putting together soup mixes. 


Onions


Squash


Beans


Peas


Carrots


Lovage


Basil


Bay


Garlic


Dehydrating these, mixing them, and putting them in plastic bags.  For soup in the winter, just add meat and stock of your choice, or even just meat and water. 


I hope to dehydrate some tomatoes, also.  We had a killing frost last night.  My garden is too big to cover everything, so we lost the squash, pumpkins,  corn, and sunflowers.  I covered the cukes and tomatoes and have yet to check to see if they made it.  Corn, tomatoes and squash weren't even done yet.  Such is life.  We do have a fantastic cabbage crop.


Well, off to school we go.

I've never thought of dehydrating veggies for a dry soup mix. Do you have any recipes to share? I'd love to try this.
