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.

Divine Chicken & Ham Casserole

What to do with leftover chicken and ham? Quick and easy casserole, that's what. This dish comes out creamy and comforting. I wouldn't make it for guests, necessarily, but it's good on a cool night, and we've had plenty of those lately here in New England.

Divine Chicken & Ham Casserole

leftover chicken, chopped or cubed (I don't really know the difference)

leftover ham, chopped or cubed

1 cup shredded cheese (Swiss works great here)

1 can cream of anything soup (I used cream of chicken 98% fat free)

a few spoonfuls sour cream (light is nice)

1/4 cup white wine (have a sip yourself)

seasoning (dill or oregano works fine)

Put the chicken and ham in a casserole dish and top with cheese.
In a separate bowl, mix the soup, sour cream, wine, and seasoning.
Pour the mixture atop of everything.
Bake at 350 degrees for about 25 minutes.
Serve over rice.

Make it a meal: Serve with steamed broccoli.

Wine: The rest of the Chardonnay! Finished already? Open another!
