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.

BLT Mashed Potatoes

The man in my life thinks everything tastes better with bacon. He is also a fan of sun-dried tomatoes, so this dish does it for him. Divas love making their men happy. Just take it easy on the cayenne.

BLT Mashed Potatoes

Potatoes, mashed

sun-dried tomatoes, chopped

bacon, cooked and crumbled

leeks, chopped and sauteed

a dash of cayenne

Mash your potatoes as you normally would.
I like to use light cream cheese instead of butter for my growing hips.
A bit of milk works well, too.
Add all the other ingredients and mix well.

Make it a meal: Serve with roasted pork and peas.

Wine: Chardonnay
