Light summer foods!

With summer in full swing, who likes to have a heavy dinner on a hot day? Eating hearty salads or grilled meals is so on tap for this summer.
Try a pasta salad:
colored spiral pasta
carrots
onions
bell pepper
celery
cheese
cooked shrimp or grilled chicken
tossed with a vinegarette.

Cut carrots, onions, bell pepper, celery into small pieces.
Boil pasta until done.
place vegetables in bowl
Toss with vinegarette and you have a meal

Or how about grilled salmon with grilled vegetables? Try having your heaviest meal in the afternoon so that your evening meal is cool and light.

Eat light, stay on the healthy side and have a great summer!
