    Gazpacho! It is a cold soup made out of tomatoes and other fresh veggies. There are a lot of recipes out there. I would just google "gazpacho recipe" and you will get a lot of options.

    Wraps with veggies and lunch meat and/or avacado. I add mustard sometimes too. Or salad with some avacado or canned beans.

    I just have simple clean foods. Tonight I had cherry tomatoes, celery, English cucumbers, tuna with light basalmic dressing, and Rainier cherries. Oh, and a carton of nonfat vanilla yogurt mixed with unsweetened cocoa powder. Totally delicious and satisfying in this heat.

    I steam some veggies in my fuzzy logic rice cooker and chill them, add them to salads and some rice.

    "Fagioli con tonno" -- beans and tuna salad. A can of beans, a can of tuna, some chopped celery, some Italian dressing.

    I set my crockpot outside on the patio table...plugged it in by the back door outlet...it doesn't heat up the house that way...(Bonus: makes the neighbors envious :bigsmile:)

    Other than that, I use a George Foreman Griller every day. It doesn't heat up the kitchen & its super quick.

    We grill about twice a week, and make enough meat to last for 2-3 days. We'll usually grill turkey sausages, turkey burgers, and/or chicken breasts. Then we'll usually serve with cold sides- a tomato/cucumber salad, broccoli slaw with apple cider vinegar & olive oil, regular salad, etc.

    ETA: We do also sometimes grill vegetables, like zucchini, yellow squash, onions, and tomatoes on skewers.

    Ceviche is fun, if you have fresh seafood.

    Hell, you can make it with canned tuna.

    Shrimp cocktail (the soupy, Mexican style) is great on a hot day too.
