Quick! What's for dinner on a FUCKING hot day? - GoFuckYourself.com

It's been stupid hot here in Vancouver for a couple of days now. I thought I took steaks out of the freezer but it turned out to be stewing beef. Obviously I'm not cooking a beef stew on a day like this!

What are your favourite recipes for the dog days of summer when it's just too hot to think about turning on the oven?

Yeah I hear ya, I haven't been eating nearly as much because everything I like requires turning on the stove, oven. I am also in Vancouver

I cut the chicken breast into chunks before I fry it, so it cooks faster. Then I make a cobb salad usually.

Salads are obviously one of the most refreshing things, however they usually aren't filling enough so I end up having to cook up some chicken.

I can't deal with heat

If our summer heat lasted a little longer, I would probably break down and get an A/C

I just go out for sushi alot more lately. Cold Salmon Sashimi is one of the most refreshing foods

Grill some fish and make a good (ice-berg)salad to go with It.

brassmonkey · 08-15-2010, 06:48 PM

Hello, potty mouth.

How about going Italian with mozzarella and tomato?
If that's not enough, steam a little crab

Elli · 08-15-2010, 09:35 PM

Fabulous ideas, thanks everyone!

I remember living in Vancouver, had a condo downtown. When I first moved in during the winter, I remember thinking that floor to ceiling windows were awesome.

Then summer came...

dready · 08-16-2010, 02:03 PM

Marinate some salmon in maple syrup then grill on the BBQ. Or grill some jumbo shrimp and eat with garlic butter. Cold lobster is great on a hot day too. (I'm on a seafood rant, lol).

Best summer salad for me is Caprese, but I make it with cherry tomatoes sliced in half, and then use the tiny bocconcini balls with fresh basil. A little balsamic and olive oil to finish it off... perfect!

gmr324 · 08-16-2010, 02:15 PM

I love a light salad with diced cucumbers, tomatos and bermuda onions topped with oregano and accompany that with a nice piece of grilled salmon.

Angry Jew Cat - Banned for Life · 08-16-2010, 02:30 PM

Yesterday we had a big summer feed with a group of friends. Had assorted salads, corn, french bread with dip, corn on the cob, and some coldcuts. blueberry pie and vanilla ice cream afterwards. lots of wine and light beer. awesome summer feast. I'm not big on eating a shitload of heavy food on a hot day.

p0rnus · 08-16-2010, 02:32 PM

Grilled salmon fillets on cedar planks with steamed and seasoned broccoli. Sam Adams Light to wash it down.

OhI must have made that bocconcini with cherry tomatoes and basil at least ten times last summer!

Sarah_Jayne · 08-17-2010, 03:31 AM

Yeah, I would be all about a protein topped salad. If I was eating meat at the moment I could have killed a steak salad myself today.
