25 July, 2007 | Summer Recipes : No Cooking Required

The heat of “Summer” is ahead of us here in Northern California. Usually August and September is the time to stay out of the kitchen. While I could eat my special mix of yogurt granola and dark chocolate m&ms just about every day, there are a few days when I want something more substantial and a green salad won’t cut it.

Things I like to eat in the heat:
Tostadas : spread canned refried beans, or (mash some black beans if you prefer) on prepared tostada tortillas, add salsa, and shredded cheese.
Muffalatta: Get a large round loaf of bread, slice horizontally and layer TJ’s olive salad, cheese, salami and deli turkey or ham (this can feed us for days).

Chef Susan’s Chilled Ginger Melon Soup is creamy dreamy

Sunset also has some suggested menus.
