This is excellent and fairly easy but does take a bit of advance prep.
It's been quite hot here in So Cal and we've been eating "cold things" for
the past two weeks.
A pasta salad would also be good. Something like....Rotilli, tomatoes,
vinegrette, capers, garbanzo beans, fresh herbs, chicken, diced
chipotles....?

Mix vinegar, oil, salt, pepper and sugar in a glass. Add to the tomato
