We have found another advantage, it means you don't add much more heat to a kitchen on an already hot day, unlike an ordinary oven. A small and welcome benefit.</blockquote><br /> <br /> That's not a small benefit when you don't have air conditioning. We use the crock pot for the same reason.

I could go back and eat it all over again.<br /> <br /> Tip for serving broccoli: Half fill saucepan with water. Cut tops off broccoli. Throw tops away. Throw bottom half away.
