Lorraine’s Little Black Dress Diet

LBDs. We’ve all got one to wear to lots of lovely parties over Christmas - and we’ve all got one that we’d just love to wear but don’t think we can. Well, the Little Black Dress Diet is perfect for getting into THAT dress.

I’ve put together a really easy to follow 4 week menu plan and I’ll be cooking some of my recipes with Lorraine over the next few weeks. The lovely Danni Minogue and Tabitha Somerset Webb will be talking about what kind of dresses we should be wearing to suit our shapes and fitness expert Jane Wake on how to lose a couple of extra pounds. We’re on every Monday & Thursday - and having a brilliant time!

New Celebrity MasterChef Winner

Even though I found it difficult (!) to give up my MasterChef title, I thought that Phil Vickery was a wonderful winner. Now, another year on, there’s a new winner in Emma Kennedy!

I thought her food was brilliant and I’m looking forward to seeing her at the BBC Good Food Shows this Winter. I’ll be at the NEC over the weekend, cooking on stage with the very lovely Shelina Permalloo. www.bbcgoodfoodshows.com

Food Festivals

I think that food festivals are a brilliant way to support your local food producers and show off what the country has to offer, and I was lucky enough to be invited along to the fantastic Liverpool Food Festival this year. I cooked up a couple of my favourite dishes plus took part in a Bake Off judged by the lovely Paul Hollywood. Slightly terrifying as I was competing against one of my favourite chefs, Tom Kitchin. Luckily, Paul said I’d done a ‘very good bake’, so even though I didn’t win, I was happy with that!
