Don't know how hot it gets in your section of Texas, but sweet corn, cucumbers, squash, common beans can't take the triple digit temps of July , early August here. Plus the pickle worms arrive around the 4th of July. Long beans are a subspecies of cowpea and take the heat well. While I set sweet potatoes in April, they will take the heat so a definite possibility.
Sweet potatoes should do well for you. We have the biggest sweet potato producer in the U.S. in our area and he doesn't start planting until the first of May and usually finishs the last of June.
I've never planted beets this late before but did this year because I had a little space not being used. I have no idea what they will do.
