We've all had those times when we want something to eat but just don't want to turn on the oven and want to put something together without a lot of fuss. With these easy ideas you can whip up a meal quickly and simply without heating up the kitchen.

These no-cook meals can be healthy too by using low-fat and low-sodium products wherever possible and using small amounts of oil where needed.

- Combine chopped tomatoes, black olives, fresh torn basil leaves, and feta cheese chunks with a drizzle of olive oil and lemon juice. Serve on whole grain bread with a side of baked potato chips.

- Combine some canned salmon (drained and flaked) with capers, dried tarragon, avocado cubes, chopped radishes, red wine vinegar, and olive oil and serve over a mixture of shredded cabbage and spinach leaves. Serve some baked pita chips on the side.

- Combine store bought prepared roasted or grilled chicken (cubed), jarred roasted peppers (drained and roughly chopped), pitted black olives (quartered lengthwise), and diced seedless cucumbers. Toss this combination with sour cream mixed with some prepared mustard. Place mixture in a pita pocket and serve with a small bowl of green grapes.

- For a quick sandwich idea, spread a combination of mayonnaise and pesto on one side of a slice of bread. Then layer as much as you want of thinly sliced avocado, sharp cheddar cheese slices, thinly sliced red radishes, roughly chopped sun-dried tomatoes, and fresh sprouts. Top the sandwich with some salsa and place the second slice of bread on top. Serve with a small plate of apple slices.

- Make a layered salad with mixed salad greens, sliced cheddar cheese, tomato slices, basil leaves, a drizzle of toasted sesame oil, and a sprinkle of lemon zest. Add some flavorful toppings of chopped nuts, diced red radish, and some crumbled goat cheese. Serve salad with flavored breadsticks or slices of rye bread or rye crackers.
