31 Recipes to Make in July 2026 - hot weather means easy, quick vegan meals, and that's just what this list is all about | ThisSavoryVegan.com

I can’t believe it is already July! I literally feel like I did my June Recipe Round-Up yesterday – time flies with an 11 month old baby at home! My concept of time is completely warped at this point.

I think in July we’re all trying to beat the heat and spend as little time in the kitchen as possible. Fire-up-the-grill-and-break-out-the-slow-cooker kinda weather.

This list has everything you could want for warm weather cooking – quick and easy dinners that won’t keep you in the kitchen all day. Scroll through to get some summer recipe inspo!
