The Cool Kitchen Cookbook lets you set satisfying, crowd-pleasing
meals on the table without breaking a sweat. Summer salads make the most of the fresh bounty of seasonal vegetables. No-bake cookies and cheesecakes, homemade ice cream and frozen desserts satisfy the sweet tooth. When you do turn on the stovetop, ultra-quick recipes and one-pot dishes keep the heat to a minimum. Refreshing smoothies, shakes and summer drinks let you kick back and enjoy when it's time to relax.
There's even a chapter on backyard grilling--right where the heat belongs in the summer! At-a-Glance icons, expert tips from our Test Kitchen pros, serving suggestions and more.
