Summer Cooking

It is probably my least favorite to cook in the house in the Summer. I try and make things fast or with minimal cooking but you can only do so much without turning some sort of cooking appliance on. Today is going to be HOT HOT HOT!!! I am making a big salad for dinner...! I love the days when Eric comes home and we can all play together without me having to worry about what time to start dinner or when to set the table. I live for days that I plan ahead and actually have dinner planned at 5:30 in the morning. I am getting better at it, but some days after hours of being with my crazy little boys there is no way I am making what I had planned. Whatever it might be, laziness, appetite or we ate it for lunch instead ( we totally have done this countless times) haha. I always have food in the pantry or fridge to help me make the most of my lazy/not hungry/ ate it for lunch days. pantry Staples in the Johnson house......
