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.

Rosemary Baked Salmon

I got my love of salmon from my mother, the anti-Diva. She is the anti-diva because she irons EVERYTHING (divas don't iron) and she makes appointments for pedicures (divas just show up and expect prompt service).

This is the best salmon ever. And EASY.

Rosemary Baked Salmon

Mash together:

1 tbsp. rosemary

a pinch of salt

a bigger pinch of pepper

2 or more cloves garlic, chopped

2/3 cup breadcrumbs

Add:

a few glugs of olive oil to make a paste

Use a fork to put the paste on 1 1/2 lbs. of salmon.

Bake:

450 degrees 10-12 minutes, until salmon flakes

Serve salmon with green beans and roasted red potatoes.

Wine: Pinot Noir

Ciao!
