The LifeStyle Channel has signed cookbook author Donna Hay for a 13-part, half-hour series to be produced by FremantleMedia Australia.

Fast, Fresh, Simple will showcase her signature style and is her first TV series. The best-selling author has appeared on a number of other programmes including as a regular guest on MasterChef Australia.

Hay said, “I’m so excited to be bringing the world of my books and magazine to life. This show captures my philosophy on cooking. It’s about sharing my secrets and showing you how to get all the flavour without the fuss to create dishes that are achievable, look good and taste great.”

“Donna Hay has redefined food in this country. Her food isn’t just delicious, it’s always visually appealing and to see that come to life in this television series is so exciting,” said Nicole Sheffield, General Manager, LifeStyle Channels.

“We pride ourselves on bringing our viewers the best lifestyle content from around the world along with the best talent. We have been talking with Donna for some time about developing a series together and we’re thrilled that her first television series is for The LifeStyle Channel.”

FremantleMedia Australia is also producing Grand Designs Australia for LifeStyle.

The series will premiere in early 2011.

  1. To be honest, I’m very surprised that hasn’t had her own series earlier than this, given her iconic status in the Australian food industry. Her magazine and cookbooks sell by the container load. I like Donna, I think she has a warm screen presence and I love her food and styling. I’m looking forward to this one.
