Diva Cooking 101

Divas cook gorgeous things that are fabulous enough to share with friends and family. They just don't cook much. Every diva needs a few, easy signature dishes to get by. Are you a diva cook?

Divas cook while listening to Billie Holiday, Muddy Waters, or the Rolling Stones.

Divas cook while sipping Champagne, Chardonnay, or a martini.

Divas cook with a feather boa draped around their shoulders.

While cooking, divas nibble gin-soaked olives or Champagne-saturated strawberries.

Divas cook while wearing an apron that says, "Tomorrow is another Chardonnay."

A diva's favorite breakfast is last night's appetizers.

Divas don't stress over particular amounts in any recipe. Glugs, plops, and handfuls are accurate enough.

Divas can cook with boas because diva recipes do not require many steps. Still, the food is fabulous.

Tortilla Pizza

These are easy and have incredible variety. Kids love them and they are fewer calories, for dieting divas, than traditional pizza crust. Some of my suggested toppings are below, but the variations are endless. (photo by Carol329)

Tortilla Pizza

4 8-inch tortillas

toppings (see below)

olive oil

salt & pepper

Place 4 8-inch tortillas on a baking sheet. Lightly oil if you wish.
Load toppings on top (again see below).
Drizzle olive oil, salt and pepper.
Bake at 400 degrees until toppings are heated and tortillas are crisp.

Toppings:
BBQ sauce, cheddar cheese,leftover cooked chicken, and onion
red roasted peppers and Gouda cheese
red sauce, chopped spinach, garlic, and feta cheese
hummus, sliced tomatoes, and chives
cooked hamburg, mozzarella cheese, and mushrooms
Cooked shrimp, butter, garlic, with or without red sauce
mushroom, spinach, and feta cheese

Make it a meal: Serve with a side salad

Wine: This depends on your toppings, but if you can't decide, Chardonnay is always good. Always.
