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.

Carmelized Onion with Thyme

This is a healthy, anti-oxidants side dish. If you like vinegar as much as I do, you are going to adore this dish. (photo by Darwin Bell)

2 glugs olive oil

salt & pepper

1/4 cup white wine

Toss the onions on a large pan; salt and pepper.

Stir the onion often for about 10-15 minutes until onion is soft.
