Ok, so I'm a little looney you are thinking, well, I am... but that's besides the point!
I'm not actually going to 'cook' in my car, I just don't want the oven on in my house all day helping me make sun-dried tomatoes. So I've set them up on a tray and put them out in my car. The average temp in my car is nearly 150 degrees, this should be great as a dehydrator. I have the windows cracked in the back and front less then an inch, I an going out ever hour to open and close the doors for slight circulation and then I just wait. I cut up about 50 cherry tomatoes, salted them with kosher salt to draw out some moisture and now I want to see what happens.
I have it up on my blog, and I'll add pictures through out the day. I've thinking these will take 2-3 good hot days to work, but I think they will work. I will bring them in as it cools after dinner.
