Cool Recipes for Hot Days

Was really hot  last week and houses around  here don't have air conditioning so I was definitely in the mood for cool food.Who wants to eat a steaming hot dish when you're  already sweating 😖 So I went browsing for some good dishes and thought I'd share them with you.I put up the pictures from each site  so  you'd have an idea what  each one  looks like .Lots of yummy stuff here 😋😋

                                                                         Grape Salad

Blue Cheese Chicken Sandwiches





Pea Salad 

This is one of my favorites.I make it all the time ! I just make mine slightly different . I skip the onions and   add  tiny chunks of raw carrot for extra crunch (if I happen to have them on hand.)Then make my dressing with a combo of mayonnaise,ranch dressing,pepper,sugar,salt and perhaps a dash or two of cayenne pepper.

                                                    Reuben Wraps 

Everyone loves a reuben sandwich but these are a little different as you make them into wraps instead of using bread.Just a nice twist on an old favorite .






                                                 Beet Macaroni Salad

Unfortunately there's no picture with  this one but I've made it before and it's good!😋



                                                   

                                                Baked Potato Salad 

Sometimes you want your favorite foods but you get tired of eating it the same way time after time.So here's a different twist on a potato salad.I've tried it  before and it's every bit as good as it sounds 👍



          


                                                                  Ice Box Cake

                            Haven't had this in awhile but it's good!Very easy to put together and                                            no baking required either.What more can you ask for when it's hot outside?!😃I always used               graham crackers  but I imagine it'd be just as good with vanilla wafers.
