Give me ideas for light meals for hot weather.Pic related, just had shrimp, veg and rice.
>>20696698nothing about this screams "hot weather" meal to me, though.One of the things I do is a cold side. Chunky overnight cold potato salad with my grilled shishkabobs or chicken breasts, side of marinated cucumbers, pasta salad, or healthy kale slaw with my fried southern main or BBQ. I try to make 1 cold salad going all week, from a curry chicken or waldorf chicken salad, to dill feta orzo, to cucumber and tomato filled taboulleh to a fruit salad or bowl of marinated tomatoes. I am putting cold strawberries on my cereal, or putting peaches into my muffins. Pickled onions go on top of tacos.I love a cold soup, but it takes a farmer's market visit to make gazpacho affordable, and I'm not making homemade stock in summer for vichysoisse.
>>20696698Watermelon, feta, mint, balsamic, olive oil, onion.
>>20696740Hmm... Thanks. I have all of that except the mint. Will make some.
>>20696751>except the mint.sometimes when out of mint, I make a batch of mint tea and add to the recipe. Other times, I sub in basil.

>>20696698are you a woman or something?"light" or "heavy" food is not seasonal fashion, get over yourself
>>20696698pasta al limone
>>20697048good idea
Shrimp are great because you can pour hot water on them and nuke for a minute and they're done. Drain and combine with fat and seasoning and that's the main figured out. Or leave them unseasoned and toss into a pasta salad. Also, any cold bibim dish.
>>20696764>pork sausage and peachI've never considered this. I'll give that a try sometime. Smoked, emulsified sausages, I would guess?

>>20696698>Give me ideas for light meals for hot weather.Is this some poverty or fatty thing? Thanks to the great modern amenity of Air Conditioning, my house remains a cool 72°F, so just being a few minutes indoors cools me off.Moreover, hiw much time is the 4channer even spending outside? Are you sweating like a pig just walking to and from your car?

>>20702534you mean recipe?I used a ready blend of frozen veg (pic)I added it to a pan with one onion chopped into big slices. Cooked, added rice, and a sauce I made with dark soy, black pepper, oyster sauce, lemon juice and garlic.
>>20702898forgot the pic
>>20702898>>20702901And obviously, at the end I added the defrosted shrimp. They were already cooked, so I just let them sit in cold water while cooking the other stuff and added them in the end, only letting them heat through.
>>20702230>eurofagEven less of reason to complain about the heat. The only place in Europe which actually gets hot is Spain and Greece and maybe southern Italy.
>>20696698Gazpacho soup.
Some crisis actors in cop uniforms came over to break my air conditioning last Saturday at 1am so I feel your pain OP. My recommendation is Ceviche: diced cold shrimp, avocado, tomatoes, onions and cilantro and with ketchup as a condiment. Have an okay day!
