Melanie Lionello has just released a beautiful and very practical book called 'Easy Italian Dinners from My Little Kitchen' (Murdoch Books) and we are delighted to have her on the show to talk about the 101 recipes between the covers. We explore Melanie's wonderful Italian family traditions which introduced her to a lifetime passion for quick, cheap, easy, healthy and delicious meals.  

We indulge in some sweet treats, a hearty winter pasta and a kitchen tip or two.  

Our weekly Food Poll is a blast from the past. Remember Cottee's Ice Magic? But in 2026 are you a yay or a nay?

Presented by Sarah Patterson & Kevin Hillier
