    Cool Recipes for Hot Weather

    These cool recipes for hot weather leave the oven off and keep you cool and satisfied. When you don't want to make another smoothie, try one of these delicious salads or cold sandwiches.

    There are two recipes that need an oven, but... make them in the morning when it is still cool? One is a brownie, and I recommend those are eaten straight from the fridge... The other baked recipe is our White Bean Veggie Burger, which is great on the grill!
