Slashfood Ate (8): Easy summer dinners

An assortment of summer squash, onions, peppers, eggplants, and mushrooms laid out neatly on a wooden surface.There's been a lot of talk about summer cooking on the interwebs recently. It's the end of the season and the available produce is ridiculously abundant. However, who wants to spend too much time in a hot kitchen when the outdoor mercury is also near to bursting out of the top of the thermostat?

If you're one of the many people who prefer easier cooking in the summer, here's a round up of recipes for you.

1. Try some crispy tilapia with pico de gallo sauce.
2. These kefta and zucchini kebabs will make you want to light the grill.
3. Here's a super easy steakhouse style dinner that's on the table pretty quickly.
4. Maybe not as seasonal, this Bucatini ai fagioli still looks simple and delicious.
5. Eggplant mini pizzas are seasonal, easy and tasty.
6. A Pinot Noir and cherry soup could make a perfect summer starter.
7. How can you get a better summer dessert than grilled peaches?
8. A simple, seasonal ratatouille is an ultimate summer meal.

Whoever wrote the blurb. You can be the guinea pig.

Try cooking pork at the temperature recommended until pink in your blurb and eating it on a regular basis(about 2x/week). Check back with me in 6 months. If you still don't have trichinosis, repeat for another 6 months and check back with me then.

If however you choose to decline this challenge. Then I recommend you shut up before you get sued, and stop endorsing assanine and risky behaviour.
