Now that Denise Richards is no longer on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, the mother of three has taken her talents to the kitchen. On Thursday, Denise took to Instagram to show her fans the new meal plan she had created for her family. It includes a strict start time and a full menu.
After only two seasons with the ladies of Beverly Hills, Denise decided to depart from the show following a rough season. The women went after Denise for the majority of the season once they found out she had an affair with former cast member, Brandi Glanville. Denise had continuously denied the rumors, but the ladies seemed to believe Brandi over their close friend. Denise did not do herself any favors by lying about other situations to take the heat off of her. After she announced her exit, the actress revealed she planned on using this extra time to be with her family, and judging by her social media, she is doing just that.
On January 28, the 49-year-old shared to Instagram a strict meal plan she had created for her and her family to follow for the night. "Sometimes it’s challenging with everyone’s schedule...so I’m trying this," Denise wrote in the caption. "I have a giant chalkboard for everyone to see. I told the family either show up or don’t. And if you don’t a plate will be saved but I can’t keep timing dinner for everyone. I’ll let you know how it goes." The chalkboard laid out the menu for dinner that night with a strict time of 6:30 pm. Judging by the "you snooze you lose" written above the menu, this is the only time Denise will be available to sit down and have dinner with the family. The menu is quite impressive for Denise, seeing as she laid out a three-course meal for the night.
It included homemade chicken noodle soup as the appetizer, roasted chicken with two types of mashed potatoes, and a salad as the main course. Denise did not forget about dessert, which was homemade brownies with vanilla ice cream, courtesy of her youngest daughter, Eloise. Several fans and friends of Denise loved her set menu and even asked if they could join in on the dinner party. Denise got questions about how she makes her vegan mashed potatoes and what ingredients go into them. It seems as though Denise has started a new trend her followers may just have to follow.
Now that Denise is no longer a cast member on RHOBH, she has been focusing on spending more time with her family and taking on projects she feels passionate about. She has her role as Shauna Fulton on The Bold and The Beautiful, and is starring in a new series called Glow and Darkness, which was filmed in Spain last year. Now Denise can add chef to the resume.
