The last few days have given me a taste of the days of summer ahead, the heat is back with a vengeance. I have resorted to my usual summer strategy of working early in the morning and in the evenings and napping and chilling out during the middle of the day. Cooking is also relegated to the cooler hours of the day. I hate cooking and eating heavy meals when I am hot.

I have mastered the technique of cooking with the minimum of effort. I am the ninja of the one-dish meal.

This filling summer salad (is it technically a salad if several of the ingredients are cooked? I am full of questions) is just perfect for these dog days. The final touch to this salad comes from the mild, refreshing taste of Mizkan rice vinegar, which works perfectly with a cold dish.

In case you missed them, these are some of my other summer-friendly one dish-meals:

Buen provecho!
