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.

Boiled Blue Potatoes

Vary the amounts depending on how many you are serving. I saw one version of this that called for 50 lbs. of potatoes. That’s one big cocktail party! The chives come from my own small garden. Small is all I can handle. I limit the amount of cheese, since my man is not crazy about blue cheese. In addition, I sprinkle bacon bits on his serving.

Boiled Blue Potatoes

3-4 red potatoes, diced

salt & pepper

chives, chopped

blue cheese, crumbled

margarine or butter

Boil the potatoes until tender, 15-20 minutes.
Mix in a bowl with all the other ingredients.

Make it a meal: Serve with pot roast with red wine (see recipe minus the potatoes) and green beans.

Wine: Cabernet Sauvignon
