Eating Day Lilies

Did you know you can eat day lilies? They can be eaten in salads or put into soups. Dry by dehydrating them for use in soups during the winter.

I keep the vegetable odds and ends from cooking in a container in the refrigerator. You know the parts you don't want to see but are good like that last piece of onion, celery leaves, lettuce scraps, carrot pieces etc. Once a week I put them in my dehydrator overnight and in the morning add them to my soup jar. I have a beautiful jar layered with all sorts of goodies that are perfect additions to winter soups!
