I am going to try some cold grain and vegetable salads - right from the back of the grain boxes. Tonight it will be quinoa and vegetables. After DH has accepted that I will branch out to freekeh and vegetables. I always have a BBQ'ed chicken handy for protein (DH has started picking one up whenever he makes a fruit run to Costco) and greens, cuke, and avocados for green salads.Originally Posted by alinnell
I'm in need of some frozen/semi-frozen fruit. It is currently 117 degrees with a prediction of 120 tomorrow and Sunday. The AC at the office had a hard time today--set at 77 and it kept running and running and was at 82 when I left.I got home and now have no desire to cook for dinner.

Speaking of semi-frozen fruit DH and I are really liking the Costco cherries, kinda liking the blueberries, and the frozen figs (my idea) were disgusting. So far the other "stone" fruits haven't been much of a success either. I had high hopes for the frozen mango chunks (I am a hopeless fresh mango peeler - wind up with squishy sludge and juice) and also the peach but they're not at all a success.
