I'm looking for your best meals that require little to no cooking for days when turning on any kind of heat source sounds miserable.

Ina Garten has a Brussel Sprout Slaw and Turkey sandwich. It's so simple and tastes so much better than it sounds. Plus, it is easy to change it up with additions. I also think of gazpacho, but adding some chickpeas or other beans to make it extra filling. Adding feta is delicious too.

What do you all do to eat well when it is sweltering outside?

Kiddos love grape jelly meatballs.

Bag of 25 to 40 frozen meat balls
12oz jar Heinz chili sauce
Half jar of welches grape jelly
Stir together in a crockpot for 4+ hours on low stir occasionally.

Serve over rice.

It sounds like the "Swedish Meatballs" my mother would make: Stir together tomato sauce and a can of the jellied cranberry sauce. Toss in the meatballs and let them simmer.

(I'm sure this isn't how you really make Swedish Meatballs, but that's what we called it growing up.)
