Wow today is bright and sunny with temperatures hitting almost 90 degrees F. I don't know if it will break any records for this time of year but it feels like summer has arrived. I'm not a big fan of severe temperatures (either hot or cold) but I'm enjoying the wonderful weather today.
Seems like today will be an easy day for meals. When it's too hot I don't like to eat heavy meals so I have some chicken defrosting and I'll throw it on the barbecue and grill it up to have on a salad for dinner. Lunch is also a simple turkey sandwich with sliced tomatoes and a little mayonnaise. No potato chips as I'm trying to cut back on my junk food.
So what do you like to eat when the weather is hot? Do you keep it simple or do you eat the same types of food regardless of the temperature?

When it's hot out I like to eat less and drink more liquids!

We eat the same year round - why change - the house is cool, a/c running in summer heat in winter. Lots of records will be set today from down south to up north - but It won't lat long. We will even cool off , next week back to low 80's which is normal..

Simpler and cooler meals are preferable during summer heat.

I can not eat when it is too hot. If I do then it will be something light like a sandwich or salad! 90F is far too hot for me especially if it is humid too! Keep cool and drink plenty!

Lunch was 2 egg rolls and a small slice of cake.
For dinner I had baby lima beans, I cooked from dry beans. Fired potatoes with onions and spinach.

I don't think our temperatures can even compare with how hot it is there

When the temperatures finally get into the high 90s to low 100s I prefer cold foods like smoked salmon or flaked imitation crab and some salsa with cheese and chips to go with that.
In the my desert it's supposed to already be in the low 90s but it's been cooler than usual although it has been windy which is normal this time of year.
I think I'm making skettie today, it's only in the mid 70s right now and it's not even supposed to get warmer than 83, kinda cool for this time of year

WE eat a lot of salads in the summer. Salads are really good or you.

I rarely eat serious meals during hot days, but I do eat lots of ice cream and drink plenty of cold liquid. A good time to lose weight!
