Today’s guest poster is not only one of my good, semi-local blends; she’s also an amazing photographer and makes some seriously good food. Seriously. Every time I read her blog, I leave my computer craving whatever it is she may have made for that day. And I can already attest to the fact that her Savvy Scones are out of this world. I’m really looking forward to getting my hands on some this weekend!
Today, Julie is sharing some of her favorite summer recipes that require little, if any, cooking. Sounds perfect to me. Just try not to lick your computer screen too much like I did…

Hey everyone! I’m Julie from SavvyEats, and I’m thrilled to be guest posting for Courtney today. I don’t know about you, but it has been far too hot around here lately for me to want to spend much time standing over a hot stove. So I’ve come up with a list of summery recipes that call for minimal cooking and lots of seasonal ingredients!
GarlicVegetableCouscous. Fresh, light and filled with seasonal produce. Have a little as a side dish or more as a main course.
SpinachandTomatoPasta. For the nights when you want something a little more hearty but don’t want to spend much time standing over the stove.
HeartyRaspberryPancakes. Filling, healthy breakfast filled with seasonal produce. Doesn’t get much better than that.
SmokyCurriedPopcorn. Crunch and airy snack with a fun savory kick.
RoastedGarlicPotatoSalad. Instead of mayo, try using some spicy garlic scape pesto for a twist on the traditional potato salad.
SavvyDessertPesto. If you love pesto and you love mint, you’ll love this. I replaced the basil with mint and the garlic with white chocolate. Delicious with fruit or graham crackers!
What are your favorite summer low-cook recipes?
