Cooking In Hot Weather

OOKING dinner in hot wenther need not be an exhausting chore; for with a little planning and ap plied common-sense, substantial meals can be easily prepared. Here is a menu the Chef and I worked out. It's a meal that will satisfy any good healthy appetite, and can be prepared with little effort, and less than the usual time in a hot kitchen.
