What do you do when it's too hot to cook?

Do you have an outdoor grill? It's nice to cook outside and that way you can keep the mess and the heat outdoors.

depend on the situation. Sometimes when it's really hot either we use food that can be nuke in microwave or order delivery..pizza or chinese. But if i feel like driving, we just take off and find a good restaurant. Usually we chose this buffet restaurant that kids love it, cause they have kid section in there.

We do take out every once in a while, but not often. And I hate to cook most things in the microwave, so we just deal with the heat. We do have a window unit AC right in the kitchen, so that really helps a lot. We just don't cook anything in the oven, just everything on the stove top or on our George Foreman grill. We grill outside sometimes, too, but not too much. Sometimes we just eat cold food. We eat a lot more veggies with dip and things like that during the summer time.

We use our outdoor grill a lot during the summer and we also eat a lot of salads. Sometimes I will make extra chicken on the grill and the next night or later in the week put it on our salads or make chicken salad out of it. I wish we could get take-out, but it is too expensive.

I will go out for meal with my girlfriend.we can find a restaurant with air condition.hehe......that will be better.

i use both and it's really great

Easy Quick meals that don't require high temps to cook which heat up the house. I love to have BBQ when it's hot too and prepare lots of salads....

I do a lot of cooking on the grill during the summer. We often eat cold meals like sandwiches and salads during the summer sometimes. Microwave meals work great on some days. On those days that are a little cooler, we do whatever stove-top preparation we can for the next few days.

We either grill outside, my husband loves to grill, or a lot of times we just have cold sandwiches and a veggie tray with some dip, and chips. We try to limit the amount of times that we get take out in a month. But, when it is too hot to cook in the house, sometimes it is necessary. I also have a small conventional oven, that sometimes I will plug in outside to cook the meat.

I prepare salads. I sometimes make puddings during an evening to eat the next day. Or I just stirfry some meat and vegetables, this is quick and eat it with bread. I make fruit salads. Or I make a quick omlett. all this does not require much time in the kitchen when it is hot.
