Hi Claire! I know what you mean about not wanting to eat raw salad every day in summer! I find Mediterranean foods to be a great warm weather option while still getting grains and beans: taboule especially, and hummus (or just chickpea salad), cous cous, etc. And don't know if you've already tried this, but the whole "meal in a jar" thing is kind of fun - layering grains, beans, greens and then a dressing in a mason jar. Very hipster-ish, LOL.
