Heat Wave Food Ideas

Wow, I can't remember the last time it was this hot for so long!  And, unfortunately, there isn't relief in sight.  Following are some of my ideas to keep your family happy and well fed in this hot weather.

Watermelon (cubed)
Cantaloupe (cubed)
Strawberries
Bananas
Pineapple (cubed)
Raspberries
Blueberries
Cheese cubes (any type of cheese - my favorites are mozzarella and colby-jack)
Deli Meats (ham, turkey, salami, roast beef)
Bacon, Lettuce and Tomato sandwiches - my favorite
Hard boiled eggs - keep in the refrigerator for a few days
Cucumbers

Any combination of the above will keep your family well fed on these hot days.  Just remember to make use of these fresh fruits and veggies that don't need to be cooked.  Your kitchen will stay cool and you family will be well- fed.
