*Johnna’s tip: Now as much as we love a good oven cooked meal, with temperatures in the 80’s adding more heat to our lives does not seem the least bit appealing. So the solution is…cold good foods! Tuna salads, macaroni salads and seafood salads are our best friends during the summer months because they involve minimal cooking time. Why spend your time in the kitchen when you could be out enjoying the warm weather and outdoor eating festivities?? Pull out the grill, some cold salads and relax in the warm outdoors;-)
*Johnna’s tip, tip: Add tuna to your favorite bread or wrap or wrap in fresh lettuce for appetizers.
