From Fiona Haynes, your Guide to Low Fat Cooking
If it's super-hot where you live, the last thing you want to do is turn on the stove. You might not even want to fire up the grill, so what can you eat?

No-Cook Recipes
When the temperatures are in the 80s and 90s, or worse, you last thing you want to do is cook. Plus, hot weather tends to curb the appetite, so steaming piles of food may not be what you're craving in any case.

Tuna, Bean and Couscous Salad
This makes a great meal on a hot day. Couscous is cooked only for as long as it takes to boil water. Then you simply leave it for five minutes and fluff it up afterwards.

Cucumber Salad
A cool and refreshing side salad that goes perfectly with grilled fish or chicken.

Vegetable and Rice Salad
Perfect as a picnic salad or a dish at your next potluck, this wholesome vegetable and rice salad features whole-grain rice and crisp green veggies drizzled with a light dressing. When asparagus is out of season or too expensive, use trimmed green beans instead.
