Yep! I've been using this trick for a while myself and it works great! Rather than having to babysit the loaves in the oven, making sure it's not too warm or cool, I just plunk them on the heating pad on low with a towel over them and they rise beautifully every time.

I agree with the multiple breakfast suggestions... I've been doing just that lately, and it's super satisfying. My version is kamut, pearl barley, steel-cut oats and quinoa. Being mixed, the quinoa will probably overcook a bit, but mix it with a bit of applesauce and raisins and you'll never notice ;)

I made this the other night for the lactose-intolerant boyfriend and it came out AMAZING. I used leftover whole grain bread, some past-ripe bananas and the cardamom... it baked up beautifully! This is getting written in my only-for-really-special-recipes book! Thank you so much for sharing!!!

I found these little guys on sale at the market today so bought them to roast in a bit of white wine and honey as a dessert... absolutely heavenly!!

I don't see how this is healthier... you still have the hot dog and batter and deep frying... you're just adding the calories (and fiber, granted) of the zucchini on top. In fact, due to the whole thing being bigger, you're got even more batter surface to fry! I think they managed to make a corndog *less* healthy :P Impressive, in a strange and unhealthy way ;)

I used to think they were pointless gadgets... that is, until I got one for Christmas. I rolled my eyes and set it aside when I unwrapped it, but the first time I used it, I believe my exact words were "Where has this thing been all my life?!?!"
I usually only cook for two (myself and the boyfriend) so dragging out the food processor and the subsequent cleaning was always a pain I reserved for big batches. But the stick blender I love! So easy to use, takes up almost no room, super easy to clean! I have the Cuisinart one and use it at any excuse. My vinaigrettes are so creamy, and it even turned a lumpy gravy into velvet smoothness!
