Quick cook meals for hot days

[RockingMyFiftiesNot]

I thought I'd seen a thread in this but can't find it- please link it you know where it is!
Looking for some quick cook evening meals which feel like 'meals' rather than a substantial salad. Don't mind salad as a side dish but have salad most days for lunch. Don't mind a bit of cooking but not hours of prep. So far this week we've had chicken roasted with potatoes and lemon; home made burgers; tandoori chicken. Will stir fry one day and maybe wraps another. Any other ideas please? Thinking these ideas would be good for self catering holidays too.

Rotiserrie chicken with baguette, potato salad, corn on the cob and coleslaw
Frittata
Gammon Steak with pineapple and potato wedges or rosti
Steak and chips with salad
Grilled or baked fish with new potatoes and veg

Cheats quiche? Sheet of ready made pastry, either puff or shortcrust, open it out flat onto a baking tray. Score a margin (I don't think I mean "margin" but my mind has gone blank) and prick the base with a fork. Mix together 2 eggs, grated cheese, and either milk/creme fraiche and pour over. Top with whatever:
Ham, caramelised onion, cherry toms, parmesan /
Salmon, leeks(soften in pan first), lemon zest /
Feta, sun dried or cherry tomatoes, olives etc.
Takes about 25-30 mins in oven. Serve warm or cold.

I had a salad yesterday with salmon.

Piece of salmon in foil with salt and pepper - 20 mins in the oven. Instead of salad you could do new potatoes and 'summer' veg such as mangetout and baby corn.

A snacky/supper dish I do is smoked fish and rice cooked in a 50/50 mix of orange juice and water, you could add a salad as a side to balance it a bit more.

Another snack on

pita bread with lettuce, bacon and creme fresh.

Stick a joint of lamb or beef in a slow cooker, serve with pitta or crusty bread with veg or salad for people to make their own sandwiches.

A vegi bake (with sausages or chicken if you want meat) would work well.

Chopp up onions, peppers, potatoes, courgette - basically anything in the fridge.

Season, drizzle with oil and stick in the oven.

Linguine with garlic, chilli, cherry toms and crab
Stuffed peppers or mushrooms
Tuna steakswith new potatoes and salad
Quaesidilla
Paprika chicken skewers

Great thread! It's been so hot I can barely face eating let alone cooking. Will try some of these today send next week

I agree @AndhowcouldIeverrefuse , am very grateful for the suggestions. Last night I made salmon with an avocado sauce - made simply by whizzing avocado, Creme fraiche and garlic. It was lovely and no stirring over a hot stove required!!
