Otherwise we use our grill whenever the weather allows! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hot-weather-dinners#post-198970 Fri, 22 Jun 2012 09:20:33 +0000 purrpletulips 198970@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I make DH grill or we do PBJ sandwiches and potato chips. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hot-weather-dinners#post-198944 Fri, 22 Jun 2012 09:04:38 +0000 Foodnerd81 198944@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I plan ahead, I love to do something like pulled barbecue chicken in my crock pot. Start that in the morning, then I come home and just have to shred it and put it on buns with a salad or cole slaw. Doesn't heat up the kitchen at all and feels summery, especially since we don't have a grill for that real summery feel. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hot-weather-dinners#post-198940 Fri, 22 Jun 2012 09:00:16 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 198940@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We do Caprese sandwiches. Fresh basil, tomato and fresh mozzarella on toasted artisan bread! Easy and delish! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hot-weather-dinners#post-198913 Fri, 22 Jun 2012 08:21:23 +0000 rachiecakes 198913@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mother makes this amazing pasta salad with tortellini and all kinds of veggies. It's very filling and something you make once and lasts for a couple days. It's my go-to meal when it gets hot. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hot-weather-dinners#post-198906 Fri, 22 Jun 2012 08:15:34 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 198906@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We make lots of salads. Our favorite one does involve turning on the grill, but it's worth it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hot-weather-dinners#post-198897 Fri, 22 Jun 2012 08:10:26 +0000 skipra 198897@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Pasta salad. We make our own pesto and use that instead of dressing. Add some beans and it's a complete meal.<br /> Also - salads or even cereal if it's that miserable! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hot-weather-dinners#post-198894 Fri, 22 Jun 2012 08:09:50 +0000 littlebug 198894@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We pick up hoagies at Wawa. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hot-weather-dinners#post-198862 Fri, 22 Jun 2012 07:41:55 +0000 edelweiss 198862@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>gazpacho--just made it this week to beat the heat wave! no cooking involved, just chopping. or spaghetti tossed with halved grape tomatoes and garlic that have been sauteed for about 5 minutes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hot-weather-dinners#post-198832 Fri, 22 Jun 2012 07:09:09 +0000 looch 198832@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like pasta salads with sandwiches in the summer for dinner. I hate standing in front of the BBQ. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hot-weather-dinners#post-198399 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 20:48:00 +0000 lovehoneybee 198399@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Subs and potato chips, hot dogs or burgers. I usually don't have much of an appetite when it gets really hot, though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hot-weather-dinners#post-198376 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 20:42:40 +0000 Alivoo01 198376@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We order take out or eat out. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hot-weather-dinners#post-198259 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 20:13:38 +0000 ladyfingers 198259@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We order pizza :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hot-weather-dinners#post-197895 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 18:53:46 +0000 sandy 197895@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Caprese open face sammies - get a baguette, basil, fresh mozerella, tomatoes, and balsamic vinegar.

We had quinoa salad - so technically, the stove was turned on for the quinoa, but that's it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hot-weather-dinners#post-197851 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 18:42:07 +0000 sslm 197851@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We had salad and burgers on the BBQ, but standing in front of the BBQ wasn't awesome. I would have preferred to just have a giant salad with feta and cranberries, and pecans! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hot-weather-dinners#post-197845 Thu, 21 Jun 2012 18:40:52 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 197845@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What's your favourite summer dinner?
