Favorite Summer Recipes

As you know, we have put ourselves on a tight budget around here and that means that we don’t want to turn the air conditioning on any more than absolutely necessary.

I have set a 90° limit. If the temperature outside gets to 90° I will relent and turn the A/C on.

Not because I’m some kind of sadist but because running the A/C DOUBLES our electric bill. So that means lots of cool, no/low cooking recipes and cooking on the grill as much as possible.

Here are my top four recipes for those “it’s too hot to turn on the oven” days.

 

Lite Chicken Salad

Mango Salsa

Chinese Chicken Salad

Turkey Meatloaf Burgers

 

And now some fabulous Summer Recipes from a few of my favorite blogging pals.
