What vegetables are good to eat in hot weather?

I think they are all very important at all times of year, not just when it's hot, because of vitamin content and they are essential for the proper working of our body. When it's very hot though, I like to buy a big melon, cut it open, scoop the seeds out then throw them away, then cut the melon into bite-sized chunks which I put into a large dish and refrigerate for a few hours. It's very cooling, refreshing and has a high fluid content.

Well as far as my knowledge goes, all vegetables are equally important for us irrespective of all seasons. There is no question in distinguishing between them. You should go for all the vegetables.

Salads are always a good idea in hot weather, so there are the classic vegetable like tomatoes, lettuce, cucumber but things like carrots, apples, watercress, raw spinach leaves are all good options. Then there a fruits like watermelon, melon and most summer fruits if kept in the fridge and eaten cool will cool the body.

The same vegetables that are available in the summer are not in the winter so don't worry about it, you can eat what's on the season cause they grow exactly in the time we need. The winter vegetables have more minerals specially and all we need on summer while the winter's can help us to stay warm.

Vegetables that are abundant in water content are the best ones to keep cool during the hot weather. Fruits such as citrus fruits, watermelons, cucumbers, tomatoes, musk melons etc. are the best ones to help beat the heat! Also make sure that you include lots of green leafy veggies as you can.

All vegetables are good for health.I eat a lot of them all the time.I like vegetables salads.I think salads are always a good idea in hot weather.

I love all sorts of veggies and I don´t think that some are better than others. I just think that it is better if we eat more than one veggie in our salad. Where I live, the temperature does not rise above 34º C in Summer and not for the whole day. So maybe that depends on where you live. But I´d drink more water to hydratate me.

I"ve never heard of this that vegetables effect our temperature. If they do then I should be eating more in this hot weather. My suggestion is to make juices out of various kinds and perhpas one of them will be that kind that helps you.

My personal view, and this is just what i think, is that theyre so good in summer as they have a high water content. Also i LOVE a large variety in salad or fruit salad, i ind it refreshing. I also find if you fill up on fruit and vegetables you feel a nice comfortable satisfied full, where as if you fill up on starch fatty foods you feel a bloated full. THere isnt any hard and fast rule on waht to eat when it is hot, but the things i find the most refreshing are lettuce bell peppers, cucumber, raw carrots and things like that, bascially i find the most freshing things are the oens you can eat raw. Maybe it because you can refirgorate them and have them nice and cool and cripsy. Apples and grapes are freshing too
