| We have been cooking most nights, but other nights just don't feel like turning on the oven and/or eating hot food. What has everyone been eating for dinner on these hot nights? |

| We grill a lot. Chicken, burgers, steak. And lots of fruit. |

| Today Roasted a butterflied leg of lamb with potatoes, and will accompany it with yoghurt and cucumbers salad. But mostly relying on summer recipes: cold soups, salads, etc. |

| Grilling a bunch of plain chicken and steak on one night. Then making various cold pasta, rice and green salads on a night by night basis and adding the protein, and the flavors from the dressing/spices flavor the protein. |

| tonight I made shredded chicken breast in the crock pot and put it in pitas with yogurt sauce, cucumbers, and tomatoes. The crock pot is great because it doesn't require standing over the stove. I have also done pulled pork, bbq chicken, etc. in it. |

I used the recipe on this page:
http://www.ldsliving.com/story/68979-easy-slow-cooker-recipes It is about halfway down. I used chicken breast and fat free yogurt though. Very good and easy. |
