Rules are made to be broken. Does anyone else in your complex grill on
their balcony?
If nothing else, you could try an electric grill. I have one made by
Rival -- it's basically a naked heating element in a thick ceramic
holder with a chrome grate about three inches above the element. I
think it's called a Crock Grill. It gets VERY HOT...I open all the
kitchen windows when I use it. I've made some great grilled asparagus
and Boca Brats on it.

I have one of those as well - I just used it for the first time last
week. The ribs didn't have that outdoor-grille-charcoal taste, but it
worked very nicely.

Hummus and raw veggies has become a summer staple.

I forgot to get lettuce last time I was at the grocery store, so I've
had a BLT minus the lettuce yesterday and the day before. I still have
a couple tomatoes left, so maybe I'll have another one for dinner this
evening.
Hummus and veggies sound good...

The spicy peanut noodles with broccoli recipe that I posted a while
back is another good one. The peanut sauce can be put together and the
broccoli chopped in less time than it takes the noodles to cook and
using just one burner for a half hour doesn't heat up the whole place.
I like to use other fresh veggies along with or instead of the
broccoli, too.

I don't do broccoli but there are other veggies that could be used
instead [I'm very selective in the vegetables I eat]. It's been a long
time since I've had the peanut noodles. IIRC, there's a peanut recipe
here in this conference that Glenda posted.

It's still my "go-to" noodle salad recipe.

And dinner here quite often.
Re: #67: The only time I have lettuce on a BLT is when I order one at a
restaurant. I really don't like lettuce on sandwiches other than subs.

Our neighbor called me over to offer me a large basil plant (we cut branches
off to put in water instead), then explained how to freeze instead of dry the
leaves, then gave me her recipe for pesto, then called me back for two ziplock
bags of the pesto she just made. It was excellent on noodles, as advised.
Most summers it is too hot to cook much. We eat bread and fruit.

The spicy peanut noodles work well with just about any fresh or frozen
veg that will cook in a few minutes in the pasta water. I've used peas
and pearl onions, fresh green beans, fresh spinach, canned rinsed chick
peas, et cetera.
