11 tasty SALADS to prep, because clearly, it’s way too hot to cook

Who feels like turning on the oven and baking a heavy, hot dish? Nope, us neither.

Quick to make, fresh and healthy, salads are pretty much our go-to meal at the moment, and with today being probably the hottest day of the year (or at least that's how we feel), we can't really see ourselves making anything else for dinner.
