Did you say ketchup...leather? Yes, indeed. Squares of seasoned, dehydrated ketchup are sliced like cheese. When placed on a burger or breakfast sandwich, they melt like cheese, too! It might be the condiment upgrade you never knew you needed. Try it on meatloaf or any way you’d like!

How to Make It
1. Step
Preheat the oven to 180°F (82°C). Lightly grease a 9 x 13-inch (22x33 cm) baking dish with nonstick spray.
2. Step
In a medium bowl, mix together the ketchup, dried basil, and garlic powder.
3. Step
Transfer the ketchup mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread in an even layer.
4. Step
Bake for 3 hours, or until the ketchup is dehydrated with no shiny spots. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
5. Step
Run a knife around the edges of the ketchup leather to loosen from the baking dish. Lift up a corner of the ketchup leather and slowly peel from the bottom of the dish.
6. Step
Transfer to a cutting board. Cut the ketchup leather into 6 even squares, discarding any scraps.
7. Step
Serve as desired, such as on top of a burger or breakfast sandwich, or over meatloaf.
