<p>I’d say focus on salads (tons of fresh veggies are now available) and add protein as needed (beans, hard boiled eggs, or fish/meat). Also, I’d second the comment on making soups–this is a great time to make a cold soup. My current favorite is cucumber soup (cucumber, yogurt, mint, and buttermilk), but gazpacho is another good one. I don’t think you need to stock up on lots of food ahead of time. I’d shop every day or every other day for fresh veggies or fruit. My H is traveling and I’ve been home alone and have been mostly eating what I call farm stand food. For example, I had two ears of corn, an heirloom tomato with balsamic vinegar, and cold cucumber soup for dinner last night.</p>

<p>We had dry milk fairly often when I was a kid and I hated it. I’d rather gag myself with a spoon than drink that stuff.</p>
