Since the Vichyssoise is best made ahead, do some of the prep work ahead, as well, and marinate the lamb. That makes dinner a breeze.
Total time: 25 minutes plus cooling and 5 minutes to finish
Another classic French dish. The addition of cream or milk to finish gives it a rich texture. If you can stand the calories the cream really makes for a luscious soup.... I always use heavy cream if serving to guests.

Note: You can set the hot soup pan in cold water (assuming it's a metal pan) to help cool the soup faster.
Total time: 45 minutes
It does look nice to have the meat and vegetable on the same skewers - and you can do that if you partially pre-cook the vegetables. I prefer to do it all on the grill, and, as the different foods have different cooking times, arranging them on the skewers accordingly. Serve on a bed of Summer Couscous, Minted Sauce on the side.

Couscous is not a grain but a tiny semolina 'pasta'. What is normally available is a pre-cooked product to which we just add boiling water or stock... making it very quick, perfect for summer, or anytime!
