We don't have an ice dispenser either but if you replace the candy with something else, this could be a really fun idea for April Fool's Day. Turn a Refrigerator Ice Dispenser Into a Candy Machine! Video |

I wrap each one individually in foil and roast. Once done, they cool a bit in their little foil packet and the skins easily slip off. What's the Best Way to Peel Beets? Ingredient Questions |

I agree with Lukeswife...this is hardly a heavy breakfast and given the protein and fat combo, won't weigh you down and should satisfy you for hours. Love this idea. Healthy & Hearty Breakfast Idea: Egg Baked In an Avocado Lifehacker |

I love to read a newspaper or a good magazine while I am eating alone. I spend all day in front of a computer and eat two meals in front of one during the workweek so prefer not to do the same at home. One thing I never do-watch TV. Cooking for One: Eating Alone |

Love cooking with this stuff and oftentimes sub it for ricotta when in a pinch. I also enjoy it stirred into oatmeal to bump up the protein content and make it that much more creamier. Curds & Whey: Cottage Cheese Ingredient Spotlight |

Broccoli soup was one of the first foods that my daughter ate and slurped up with glee. Like the original poster said, its a one stop shop where its not only easy to prepare but is nutritious as well. Another favorite of ours is butternut squash-its sweet and colorful to boot.

It depends: if it is family or my bestie, then I have no problem with them helping. But the type-A in me also doesn't mind doing it myself provided I have someone to sit at the bar and chatting with me while I keep busy. Either/or work for me.

Wonderful post that made me want to do two things. First, get out of my gym clothes and go back to bed and second, eat toast and honey for breakfast. We have a loaf of delicious chewy pugliese leftover from last night that for some reason, never got eaten with our spaghetti carbonara so I may just do that. About the gym....guilt will propel me into going but I like your idea much better. At least I did one of the two. Weekend Meditation: Sunday Morning's Toast with Butter and Honey |

No idea about tonight as hubby and I are still getting our palates back to normal after getting over the flu but tomorrow I'd like to back some butternut squash "farrotto" (a farro risotta) from a Bittman Cooking Light recipe. What's Cooking This Weekend? Weekend of February 4-5, 2012 |

I have a 4yr old and I make it a point to make vegetables the front and center of whatever we are eating so I most definitely do NOT hide. If she doesn't like something, then she just pushes it aside but I do encourage her to at least try what is on her plate for a "no thank you" taste. We eat the same meal every night with some minor modifications if something is deemed to be too spicy for her palate. If there is anything I have to hide it is black pepper-she's got an eagle eye for seeing those little cracked morsels in any dish. Are You a Vegetable Hider? |

I prefer mine cut up as well and even cut them in the morning to eat with my lunch later in the day. But consider me strange but I really don't mind them turning a little brown. Never bothered me. The Rubber Band Trick: How to Keep a Cut Apple Fresh in Your Lunchbox |
