It's too hot to cook indoors.

@Pooky1   I don't use the oven in summer either, so use a toaster/convection oven

Hi @Pooky1 ----hope you, Maria and Anna are enjoying your summer.....this weekend you'll spend a lot of time in the pool ! I usually go once and stay until Sept/Oct, but when I do have to drive from Watch Hill to NJ it seems like it takes FOREVER ! 

Please tell me how to make the Italian Tuna Tomato Salad......I am a big tuna eater......

Yesterday I made a creamed spinach casserole that I found on line .....threw eggs, spinach, cottage cheese, flour, milk, butter, cheddar cheese, mushrooms into slow cooker and had it tonight with boneless, skinless chicken thighs cooked in pan.....VERY, VERY GOOD !

• Hi @Danky ,  would you tell me the site where you found the slow cooker creamed spinach casserole recipe, please?  I'm all for using my slow cooker in the summer and I know I would enjoy this dish.  Thank you.

@vabreeze ......the recipe came from Allrecipes.  I pretty much followed the recipe but used 2-12 oz spinach, a can of garlic roasted cream of mushroom soup, NO salt, a little pepper and sharp cheddar cheese as well as everything else in the recipe.

hope you like as much as I did !

@Danky ,  

Many thanks!!!  I will incorporate your tips when I make mine.  I'm not familiar with GARLIC ROASTED cream of mushroom soup but I anticipate that it will add a nice zip to the dish.

Last night was scallops and tiny halved crisped new potatoes on top of wilted lettuce, it didn't wilt, lol, dressed only with some bacon rendering, tossed the majority of the fat, and shallots, nothing else added.

I will be going through the freezer to see if I can find something easy for tonight, and reorganizing, what a joke, lol, never seems much better, still packed.

Have a great weekend!
