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.

Lemon Butter

This is my favorite butter to use for garlic bread. Use it on pasta vegetables, or fish for fabulous flavor. Tonight I'm putting it on top of tilapia.

Lemon Butter

1/2 cup butter

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 clove of garlic, minced

1 teaspoon minced fresh parsley

Make it a meal: Serve atop cooked orzo with a side of steamed broccoli. Put the butter on the broccoli too!

Wine: Chardonnay
