Light meals/foods?

It's blastingly hot here, I don't want meat or cheese or anything that needs much cooking(the 220 oven really heats up the house). Before keto I would have a couple cut up apples, or half a watermelon. What do you do when you want something cool and easy for a meal? I'm sweating sitting here in a tank top and shorts, all of my usual keto foods seem heavy, hot and just bleh right now.

Celery. Cold dill pickles. And then a salad for dessert.

My brother used to make these smoothies with cream, peanut butter and protein powder blended with ice... that might work as a meal replacement?0

lunch meat (or any cooked/prepared meat, for that matter) spread with cream cheese and shredded cheese wrapped around a pickle spear!! I also do pepperoni (cold) with sharp cheddar. Deviled eggs. I made a steak wrapped around cream cheese and such last night that I can totally see eating cold if I wanted to. If you can make something with cream cheese and cooked meats, then eat it cold later.... Also, some foods can be microwaved. I've done a chicken caesar salad with pre-cooked chicken... Hummus if you can afford the few carbs. There are alternative forms of hummus, too. Now I'll have to think on this...0

salads, turkey pepperoni and string cheese, cottage cheese or tuna (or chicken) salad on a bed of lettuce with other chopped veggies (pepper strips, celery, etc)0
