Now it's hot. The kind of hot that forces you to sit still, preferably under a ceiling fan, sipping a cold drink. You can almost hear the garden growing. Everyone slows down. It's so hot you don't want to cook - not for anybody! But you still have to eat!
Turn to these easy recipes that - I guarantee - do not use one bit of heat. Not from the grill, stovetop, microwave, or oven. Canned foods, deli ingredients, frozen fully cooked meats, and fresh summer produce all combine to make excellent recipes that let you keep your cool inside and out. To speed up preparation even more, think about chilling the canned foods, still in their cans, in the fridge the night before you want to make the recipe. Then you don't even have to wait for the recipe to chill; just combine the cold foods right out of the cans and sit down to dinner. Enjoy!
