I'm quite fond of this gazpacho recipe: https://thewayne.dreamwidth.org/1074178.html and make it a couple of times a month, it's also very inexpensive. You do need a food processor, but in terms of work you need to open a can of tomatoes, peel and slice a cucumber, cut up a bell pepper and handle some garlic, aside from measuring oil and vinegar. Very fast no-cook soup and excellent for not increasing the heat in the kitchen.
I have an excellent no-cook pasta sauce - again, food processor - that uses anchovies and tomatoes with a total of only seven ingredients, got the recipe from a Nigella Lawson cook book and it is great. Again, no heat load. I thought I'd posted it but found I either hadn't or didn't tag it under recipes, I'll make it again and post it next month.
And of course there's Spaghetti Carbonara, one of the simpler pasta recipes and perhaps my favorite. Again, I'll make it and post it next month - we're going to Phoenix in a couple of days for my mom's birthday and to do the Ren Fest and I'm not going to do any big cooking between now and then, or at least anything that won't be totally consumed or can't be frozen.
