Insta-food: CiCi Bellis cooks up a culinary platform

This is next-level COVID-19 cooking and baking: CiCi Bellis is showing off another set of skills entirely.

Back from injury and surgery layoffs but homebound due to a global pandemic, Bellis launched the @CiCiCooks Instagram account. It gives a taste for the kitchen's finer (read: heartier) things with Bellis whipping up a repertoire of savory and sweet delights to match her all-court game.

Not all the goods are sugary—she does her fair share of work with broccoli and other healthful ingredients.

This downtime venture is for real, too. She even has a cooking-centric logo featuring tennis stick as spatula.

With a ranking frozen at No. 304 when the coronavirus crisis spiked, Bellis will be more than ready to return to the world's tournament courts when play resumes. May her culinary patience and precision reward her invariably when again players lace up their match shoes.
