We’re Having a Tropical Heatwave

As I have learned in Florida, you either freeze or roast; there is no in-between, so when the strong winds blow, stand up to them and cool off or stand in the pouring rain. As you can see, I have had quite enough, but no reason to complain; nothing will change anyway.
The thing is that you have to be creative. No matter what, you still have to have at least one meal a day in this heat???? So I have some creative ways to enjoy food anywhere the heat rises. I order from Walmart and have found a lot to like about the Great Value brand. Here are three creative snacks to enjoy just enough to fill your tummy.
Take a flour tortilla or two. Top with pizza sauce, top with slices of pepperoni, and top with shredded cheddar. I put it into my toaster oven for half an hour and have a nice pizza-like treat.
I order frozen buttermilk pancakes, top one or two with a pork sausage patty, and top with shredded cheddar. Bake for half an hour, and you have a nice snack to eat.
Finally take one or two frozen waffles. I chose to brown up ground Italian sausage in my electric skillet first. Top the waffles with pizza sauce, top with Italian sausage, and shredded cheddar. Bake for half an hour and you have another nice snack.
To entertain you, Linda Rondstadt and “Heatwave”

@RasmaSandra You can also make a simple quesadilla with a tortilla..tastes really good if you have a bit of salsa to add

One way I battle heat from the outside is to drink water or juice to avoid heat related sickness.






Today, we got a brief reprieve where it is only 72 F. That is unheard of in Oklahoma for mid June. And Lord knows we needed the break.
