Strawberry Apple Fruit Leather
(homemade fruit roll ups - very nutritious)

1 cup unsweetened applesauce
2 cups ripe strawberries (washed and hulled)
1/2 cup honey

Place all ingredients in blender and puree to a smooth consistency.

Oil a cookie sheet with non-stick cooking spray
or pour on an oiled fruit leather tray (of your dehydrator).
Spread mixture so it is evenly distributed.
Bake in pre-heated oven at 150 degrees for 5-7 hours or in your dehydrator for 4-5 hours.

Fruit leather is done when it feels "leather like" and is still pliable.
