Airdate: Donna Hay: Fast, Fresh, Simple.

Not too sure about the title, but The LifeStyle Channel will premiere Donna Hay’s brand new 13-part, half-hour series, Donna Hay: Fast, Fresh, Simple, on Tuesday March 15 at 8.30pm.

Produced by FremantleMedia Australia this is Donna Hay’s first solo television series, focussing on recipes that people can cook at home.

The series is connected to her book of the same name: fast is for cooking fuss-free weeknight dinners; fresh is Donna’s new take on traditional recipes; and simple is easy shortcuts using fresh and store-bought ingredients.

“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.”

Australia’s leading food editor and best-selling cookbook author, Donna’s simple and style-driven approach to food is reflected in her award-winning cookbooks. She has sold more than four million copies worldwide, set the benchmark for food publishing and inspired a whole new generation of cooks.

“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,” said Donna Hay.

Shot on RED, the latest in high definition, Donna Hay – Fast, Fresh, Simple will showcase the natural charm and passion Donna brings to the world of cooking. A relaxed and composed cook, Donna loves to share her tricks and tips of combining fresh and pantry ingredients to create fast and simple dishes that are presented with her signature style.
