30 quick, easy and delicious no cook meals to enjoy all summer long!
While it isn’t officially summer yet, it sure feels like it around here. I happen to live in the desert so it gets pretty hot here this time of year. We’re looking at a high of 114 this weekend and I’d be lying if I said I was looking forward to it 🙂
With the heat comes a little bit of laziness and usually the last thing I wanna do is a cook a huge meal. I’ve rounded up 30 quick and easy meals that require no cooking at all! They’re all quick and easy and will be perfect to enjoy all summer long.
