Sometimes it can be great to take a break from cooking. The following are a few ideas for hearty dishes that can be prepared without heat, saving you time and energy.<\/p>\n

No-cook Dishes You Can Easily Prepare<\/h2>\n

Muffuletta Sandwich: <\/strong>In a bowl, stir together 3\/4 cup olives, 3\/4 cups artichoke hearts, 1 grated carrot, 2 tbsp fresh basil, 1 tbsp fresh oregano, 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil, 1 tbsp red wine vinegar, 1 minced garlic clove, salt, and pepper. Cut ciabatta loaf in half to make two long halves. Scoop out the inner part of one slice, leaving about 1\/2 inch of bread shell. Take olive mixture and spread on hollowed out half of the bread. Spread 3 tbsp coarse-grained Dijon mustard on the other half of bread. Layer porchetta or other deli meats with provolone, Italian chorizo, and prosciutto. Add sliced red onions and arugula to the top. Add another bread slice on top. If you want to make this ahead, just wrap tightly in plastic wrap, store in the refrigerator and add a heavy weight on top for up to 8 hours.<\/p>\n

Smoked Salmon Bagel: <\/strong>Bagels are not just for breakfast. You could eat this for breakfast, lunch, and dinner — it's that delicious. Slice pumpernickel, plain, or another flavor bagel in half. Spread each side with chive cream cheese. On one half of bagel layer English cucumber, smoked salmon, thinly cut red onion rings, and 1\/2 teaspoon drained capers. Top with remaining bagel half and enjoy.<\/p>\n

Mango Avocado Shrimp Salad:<\/strong> Stir together 3 tbsp fresh lime juice, 2 tbsp grapeseed or extra virgin olive oil, and 1 tbsp sugar. Dice 2 mangoes and 2 avocados. Add to lime mixture in a bowl and toss gently with 1 pound cooked shrimp. Top with sliced green onion, freshly chopped cilantro, 1 tbsp minced fresh red or green chile pepper. Serve immediately or chill for one hour before serving.<\/p>\n
