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.

Goat Cheese Toasts

This is a darling, easy appetizer. The only thing is, you either have to cover the cracker completely with the cheese or you must watch it carefully while it is under the broiler. The latter is not this diva’s forte. It is boring watching a piece of cheese melt.

Goat Cheese Toasts

6 Melba Toasts, garlic flavor

1 roll of goat cheese

basil

oregano

Place the crackers on a baking sheet.
Using a piece of dental floss (unflavored), slice the goat cheese into sweet, round pieces.
Place goat cheese atop the garlic crackers.
Sprinkle basil and oregano on top.
Broil for 3-4 minutes or 2 sips of wine.
Serve immediately to grateful guests.

Make it a meal: Serve ahead of Chicken and Mushrooms in Wine (see recipe)

Wine: Sauvignon Blanc or Champagne
