Summer Cooking Made Simple
Hot weather calls for easy cooking. Think quick grills, no-cook salads, and recipes that don't heat up your kitchen. We're using what's actually in season - corn, tomatoes, peaches, cucumbers - because that's when they taste best and cost less.
Throw some lamb burgers on the grill, whip up a mango cucumber salsa, or toss together a simple salad. These aren't complicated restaurant dishes - just good food that works for summer. Most are gluten-free and dairy-free, and they're easily adaptable for various dietary needs and food allergies, too.
