Can I make my own instant dry soups with a food dehydrator? Recipes?

Q: I want to make my own instant dried soups with a food dehydrator. The packaged ones are really loaded with salt, fat and chemicals. The 'healthy' versions of instant soups cost way too much and don't always taste great for the price.I have made my own frozen meals successfully and vacuum sealed them and they came out perfect aside from the fact they aren't very portable. I don't have a stove or microwave at work but I have hot water. I am just not sure how to make dried soups. I really like the convenience of being about to carry something that I can just throw boiling water on and eat! Is there any way I can make a great homemade 'Instant cup a soup?' I have checked food dehydrator recipes and I haven't found much besides 100's of beef jerky and banana chip recipes! Does anyone know of any dried soup recipes? Would I have to buy the bullion/noodles/herbs separately? What kind of disposable heat-proof container/bowl/cup can I use? How long can I store it if I vacuum seal it? Has anyone tried this and what soups did you make? How did you get the recipes? Any help would be appreciated. Keep in mind I like all soup, chicken, minestrone, cream of corn, split pea, lentil, ramen, or whatever. Ideally I would like to have 4-5 kinds so I can rotate. Please help, I am SO sick of sandwiches and salad and I like something hot and hate fast food! Thanks in advance!

A: Being that all the dehydrated components are readily available individually, I can't see bothering w/ a food dehydrator.I've seen recipes for Minestrone Soup Mix, that you package up and give as gifts.... called for powdered boullion/stock (can use lo-so), dry pasta and beans, dry herbs and spices, dry split peas, and you include a can of diced tomatoes w/ the package. Check out some 'thrifty cooking' sites to find simple recipes, subbing your own low-sodium ingredients for ones that are typically high sodium.
