Puttin' on The Mitts: Summer doesn't have to be hot

Who says summer has to be filled with heat?

Yes, the temps have certainly been mild lately, but we're not going to be that lucky for the entire summer. We're bound to have some 90-degree days filled with humidity and no breeze.

And when it's hot out, there's nothing worse than standing over a hot stove or oven, preparing a meal for yourself or your family. Sometimes, it's not even enjoyable to eat hot foods in the heat of summer, but who could say no to a meal filled with vegetables from the farmers market or perhaps a cold salad that takes only minutes to create?

The Mitts return next week with some fresh, new recipes. They'll be sharing some dishes that work well in the summer, but won't leave you sweating in the kitchen.
