California Farm Chipotle Pork Rib Garden Salad

It was 125F degrees yesterday afternoon outside in the kitchen garden. 51 Celcius. Thin skinned tomatoes split and cooked on the vine. The green peppers scorched. The armenian cucumbers wilted. The grapes split and shriveled. The summer squash have burn spots on them. I grow these veggies in big 3’ wide, 2’ deep cloth planterpots with handles, so I can drag them to spots that get less afternoon sun. I harvested the sun damaged ones, made this improbably huge salad with lemon, olive oil, pepper. Served with 4 chipotle pork ribs on top of baked summer squash. And wine margeritas.
