Famous Celebrities Who Can Cook: Linda Evans, Eva Longoria, and Brian Boitano

We recognize the ‘celebrity’ of these famous people for their acting careers and their skating ability which entertain us; but few people know that these fine folks are also accomplished cooks!

Linda Evans caught our attention when she was on a Western series, “The Big Valley” on television several decades ago. Then her stature as a beautiful woman and accomplished actress catapulted her to the forefront as she brought drama amid elegance to “Dynasty”. Linda went on to pursue her spiritual Life just down the road from where we live while organizing concerts with Yanni for audiences around the world. Then she showed us just how well she can cook! She prepared heavenly dishes on “Hell’s Kitchen”. She appeared recently on Rachel Ray’s television show and her warm presence is as profound as ever.

Linda just published her new book. It might be the perfect new accompaniment for your kitchen library! She has elevated her food preparation to be worthy of providing a Feast for the most special of guests who pay a small fortune to sit at the table with a fabled friend of ours.

Then there’s Eva Longoria. We know her best from “Desperate Housewives”. She has been making the drama of relationships move us to tears or to unbridled laughter.

Eva recently appeared on Martha Stewart’s show to promote her new cookbook and demonstrate a dish for the audience. It made my mouth water and I had Mexican food after watching that episode. Her roots are deep and she honors her heritage when she prepares a meal. I was just as pleased with her eloquence as much as her recipe.

What would we say about Brian Boitano? We know what he would say and we’ve been watching what he can cook. He has a show on the Food Network. He can cook almost as well as he can skate and entertain… In fact, he’s a funny guy! He gives good tips and explains what he is doing while skating through his recipes to make it very accessible.

While these celebrities have a long way to go to offer healthy fare, they are doing a great job to make the kitchen an entertaining place to be for all of us! That is as much a component of a healthy Lifestyle as any other attribute…

I have a healthy respect for famous people who spend time taking care of themselves by cooking their own food and sharing it with their friends and families. They can afford personal chefs and often eat at the finest restaurants on the planet; but there’s a lot to be said about having mastered skills in your own kitchen and finding satisfaction and joy in the preparation of your own food. That’s an ACT that is hard to follow with something as equally as important as one’s own nourishment and sustenance!
