Banana pudding

Low-calorie banana pudding
Mitch Mandel and Thomas MacDonald

Banana Pudding is a classic southern dessert, but it can be too pale. If you do, use Nilla wafers, but be ready to enjoy it right after doing it, when it's the most delicious. The remains of Pudding Banane are turning to mud and magic will be part.

Always love this south treat? Try our recipe forSouth-style banana pudding with vanilla wafers.

2

Baked beans

Baked beans
Refuge

Baked beans are a summer box stapler, but why? They are almost sick and the beans themselves are hard to eat and run throughout the plate in your other cooking fasteners. It's a good to jump.

If you still love baked beans, try our recipe forSmoke baking sheet "baked" beans with bacon.

3

gazpacho

Healthy gazpacho
Mitch Mandel and Thomas MacDonald

We get it can be too hot to enjoy a bowl of hot soup during the summer. But Gazpacho, a cold soup made with tomatoes and vegetables, is overestimated unless your ingredients are on the point. For this to sing, you need a high quality olive oil and tasty tomatoes (not the soft, fade).

Always love this refrigerated soup? Try our recipe forHealthy gaspacho.

4

Chia pudding

Chia seed pudding
Refuge

Chia Pudding looks like something that should taste awesome but rarely done. It lacks the cream ofNight oatsAnd small seeds always find their way into your teeth. They are super nutrient-dense, however, and are great when mixed with things, like oats or jam.

If you still want to try your hand to make Pudding Chia, you can not go wrong with thatCustomizable Night Chia Pudding Recipe.

5

Smoothie bowls

Waterbury Publications, Inc.

Smoothies can be superb, but their cousin, smoothie bowl, is one of the most overestimated dishes to do at home. By mixing frozen fruit with just the right amount of liquid to make it in smoothie, but not too thin, it's too much hassle.

If you still love this spoon treat, try our recipe for aGolden Mango Smoothie Bowl.

6

Potato salad

Potato salad
Refuge

Potato salads with dressings based on vinegar are delicious in summer. When they are loaded with Mayo dressings, they can be heavy and not sit so well in the heat to overestimate.

For a clearer grip on potato salad, try ourSafe and classic potato salad recipe.

Shrimp cocktail

Healthy shrimp cocktail
Mitch Mandel and Thomas MacDonald

Shrimp cocktail is cold, but beyond that, it's super overvalued. The shrimp is almost no aroma (unless you use the very good things, like the royal red, but why would you use it for shrimp cocktail?) And must remain incredibly cold to not go wrong. It's too risky and is not worth effort.

You want an update outlet on this aperitif? Try ourRoasted shrimp cocktail recipe.

8

Lemonade

Glasses of lemonade
Refuge

There are so many good refreshments to refresh us during the summer. The lemonade, however, is one of the most overestimates, especially when you determine how additional sweetening is needed so that it is not completely plush to the lip.

You always want to try your hand with homemade lemonade? Try this tasty recipe ofHalf cooked harvest.

9

Macaroni salad

Macaroni salad
Refuge

The pasta salad can be a great summer dish. But the macaroni salad is overestimated. It's hard to stab with the fork and Mayo vinaigrette (like that of his cousin, a potato salad) is simply not very attractive to 100 degrees.

If you can not imagine a summer box without macaroni salad, we like this recipe ofLil 'Luna.

10

Fraud

Fry is another of these things best left to professionals (preferably those with high power frozen drinks). Rosé frozen is delicious, but at home, he rarely leaves as well as those found in the bars. Or, you have to drink it great quickly, which is not always preferred.

You always want to try your hand in this frozen drink? We love this frosted recipe ofFive heart at home.

11

zucchini bread

baked zucchini bread
Refuge

It may seem obvious to cook a bread ofcourgette Bread when you drowned in squash during the high season. But the zucchini bread is never really satisfying and manages the risk of being too aqueous.

If you still want to get up a bread, we love this zucchini bread recipe fromAmbitious kitchen.

12

Melon soup

melon soup in bowl
Refuge

Is the melon soup a soup or is it a smoothie disguised in soup? In small doses, these cold and fruity soups can be a nice palace cleaner. But a whole bowl of things is too too much.

If you still want a cold soup, we love this iced cucumber melon melon soup recipe fromFeasting at home.

13

Ceviche (which involves real cooking)

Ceviche
Refuge

Ceviche is a dish that consists of curing seafood in lemon juice or lime. It takes a lot of time, but the bright and pungent flavor it produces is worth it. The addition of a real cooking component can help you save time, but it hurts the simplicity of an ideal dish for lazy days of summer.

For an easy and tasty plug on this dish, we like this ceviche recipe grilled citrus cemnuts of scallopsCook.

14

Homemade popsicles

PopSexicles are large treats in summer, but homemade popsexes? Meh. There is almost always something that is not going, like not to be able to remove the pop from its mold. Or, you make a lot and forget them in the freezer after having one. There are popseexicles purchased at the store for a reason!

You always want to make homemade frozen treats? We love these roasted bays and these honey yogurt popsexics ofCookie and Kate.

15

Steam cooked clams

Clams with linguine
Refuge

The steamed clams are delicious - when someone else does for you. Like a dish to cook at home, however, they have pain. The clams themselves do not take time to cook, but you run the risk of not having an excellent return. The clams are already small and sometimes they do not open during the cooking process.

If you want to get the most out of the CLAMS season, try this clam sprout recipe ofI breathe, I'm hungry.

16

Zucchini noodles salads

Zucchini noodles zoodles
Refuge

Zucchini's noodle salads are never satisfactory. You must organize a zucchini bouquet to get enough noodles, then it's still not very filling. Or if so, you are left with a bunch of zoodles that you can not save exactly for later, because they will become Mushy. No thanks!

You still want to cook with zoodles this summer? Try them in this recipe of zucchini noodles with peanut chicken ofThe dependence on the cooking of Sally.

17

Corn on the COB

Corn on the cobb
Refuge

Maize is an excellent ingredient to use in summer. But it deserves more respect than being served on COB. Not only is it boring (unless you do not doelote), But who wants Chowler on the COB in front of other people during gatherings? Record it for salads and pasta dishes instead.

If you can not imagine a school without corn on the COB, you can do it in your instant pan! Try this recipe ofThe kitchen at the house of mom.

18

Plague

Do not get me wrong: The pie pies are delicious. And they are especially no-cooks, making it an apparently great dessert option in summer. But they take at least four hours to relax. Do you have a lot of patience?

If time is not an object, try these strawberries and this cream pieces of ice creamSweet Phi.

19

Panzanella

Panzanella is a great way to use bread that will do obsolete. But he was also likely to become soggy once it mingles with the vinaigrette, which pushes it in the overestimate territory.

Always love Panzanella? Try this recipe for Panzanella with marinated chickpeas and chemichurriAs it's sweet eats.

20

Poke bowls without rice

We appreciate the call of low carbohydrate and carbohydrate dishes, but some things should not be spoiled. Poke bowls are one of these things. Rice is the ideal way to soak sauces like Ponzu and Shoyu, which are usually used to dress the chopped fish.

If you are looking for a lighter alternative, try this bowl with the AHI tuna with a recipe of lawyer and cucumber noodles ofInspiralized.

21

WATERMON SLUSHIES

watermelon slushies with slices of watermelon
Refuge

Although you only need three ingredients to make a refreshing water melon silhouette, there is too much work involved. You need about five total plytic cups that will then juice and frozen for the Slushie. It's a lot of melons that need to be sculpted, or a lot of pre-cut melon from the grocery store, which can be added quickly. And for two portions of Slushie? Thank you next.

If you want to try a slushy water melon, try this trembling cocon coconutMinimalist baker.

22

Squash

squash casserole in glass dish
Refuge

Cocottes are an effective way to use an upward curriculum, which grows in summer. But do you want a little intense saucepan and foamy in summer?

If the answer to this question is "Yes", try this southern squash recipe ofThe seasoned mother.

23

Salads with Cantaloupe

wooden bowl of sliced cantaloupe
Refuge

The cantaloupes are the most overestimated fruit on the fruit plate. Most cantaloupes are bland and are not worthybroking a plate with summer jewelry: tomatoes. Exceptions apply of course; Your Cantaloupe farmers market may have good taste than those sold in grocery stores. Overall, however, it is not at the top of our list.

If you like you like Cantaloupe, try this summer tomato salad and cantaloupesMinimalist baker.

24

Kale salad

Kale caesar salad
@ @ @ ELD / Modern

Kale is the most overestimated period of salad, period. You could give him a spa massage, and it still would not be worth it.

Does not agree? Try this cozy cabbage salad recipeCookie and Kate.

25

Guacamole with Kale

guacamole with mortar and pestle
Refuge

Guacamole does not need Kale mixed. It's not just that the guacamole is perfect as it is already, but adding dogs about it is a huge effort when you consider you need to dehybeate, cut and massage.

If you still want to add these green to your guacamole, try this recipe of Kale Guacamole deCookie and Kate.

26

Grilled donut and fruit kabobs

The fruit kabobs are delicious. The donuts are delicious. Together, however, it's a little bit.

Does not agree? Try this donut and this Kabob fruit recipe ofTaste and say.

27

Pizza Quinoa

quinoa
Refuge

The pizza is excellent at any time of the year, but it can be particularly delicious in summer when it is overcome with vegetables (and possibly grilled). Make an alternative pizza crusts is understandable, but it can be a lot of work.

If you want to try Quinoa Pizza, we love this recipe ofSimply quinoa.

28

Broccoli cocotte

broccoli casserole in glass baking dish
Refuge

Broccoli deserves better than being used in a saucepan. Grill it, roast it or steam, everything is better than use in a saucepan.

Always want a broccoli casserole? Try this pan of sweet potato rice broccoli pesto ofInspiralized.

29

Granola Barres Homemade

Homemade granola bars
Refuge

Dossier of the bar of Granola House under "Fussy". They require a lot of ingredients and damage, everything for something that usually satisfying little.

If you still want to make homemade granola bars, try this recipe of Grenola Grenola Greek Greek GreccHalf cooked harvest.

30

Steak kabobs

Grilled steak summer's delicious. So are grilled vegetables. But Kabobs? They are overestimated. The kabobs are a lot to prepare, and they are not difficult to overcome. The kabobs made with just vegetables work well and the kabobs to cook without fruits are a treat, however. But add the meat is too much work.

If you still want a classic steak kabob, try this recipe Asian pepper steak kabob ofOven gimme.

31

Ratatouille slow cooked

Chickpea pasta ratatouille zucchini cherry tomatoes eggplant
Refuge

Ratatouille is another great way to use summer products that you do not use quite quickly. As for the slow cooker, however, seems it would cause a frothy mess (and it also cooks quickly the stove).

For a more traditional ratatouille recipe, we like it toCookie and Kate.

32

lobster rolls paleo

Lobster roll
Refuge

Again, there is a time and place for dishes low in carbohydrates. lobster rolls, a staple of the diet of New England, deserve to be eaten on bread.

If you want a low carb lobster recipe, however, we love this salad lobster roll BLTI breathe, I'm hungry.

trivia

Of course, trifles look cool, but they are a bit of a mess to serve. Dessert eventually became disjointed and does not taste very "wow".

If you want to trifle Berry, we love this trifle lemon berryThe dependence on the cooking of Sally.
