Several years ago I helped run an experiential program for violent male offenders age 14-20. I spent about 250 days/year living out of a pack in the field. Traditional pack food gets old pretty quick. So I got creative with my dehydrator, and since the program was supplying alot of the food (it was a medium secure lockdown residential program) I still basically just had "institutional" type food to mess around with. With that in mind....
I made dehydrated;
Taco Meat (Delicious!)
Black Beans
Salsa
Red Sauce
Scrambled Eggs
Soups
And alot of other "experiments" with widely mixed results.

I prefer bananas and jerky followed real close by strawberries.

MM, how did the salsa come out? did you just put it on liners?

Yeah, liners. comes out like a fruit roll up.
We would drop it in a nalgene bottle in the morning with someb water & with all the sloshing around in the pack we'd have salsa for dinner. same for th taco meat. the beans wed just add boiling water & stir.
I cannot speak to long term storage. id make stuff every 6 weeks or so, so we didnt really try longterm storage.
