A new vegan cooking show, hosted by bestselling author and former CNN host Jane Velez-Mitchell, has launched on Amazon Prime Video with the goal of helping viewers embrace a healthier, cruelty-free lifestyle.
Described as a first-of-its-kind, New Day New Chef shows viewers how to create healthy and delicious plant-based recipes with step-by-step directions from celebrity co-hosts and leading vegan chefs.
The easy-to-prepare creations in season one include triple-decker veggie burgers, Superwoman kale, and eggless deviled eggs.
Joining Velez-Mitchell on the show are some of America’s most prominent vegans, such as Olympic medalist and “Game Changers” star Dotsie Bausch, NBA legend John Salley, supermodel and producer Katie Cleary, TV chef Mario Fabbri, actress Christine Elise, celebrated Los Angeles chefs Babette Davis and the Spork Sisters, and many more.
“In this New Day of climate and health consciousness, anyone can be a New Chef, and we’ll show you how,” said Eamonn McCrystal, the show’s executive producer. “There’s a new appetite for plant-based food, and we’re serving recipes and information to a large, curious community of foodies and home cooks who want to put their ethics on their plate.”
Now is the perfect time to show people how delicious and nutritious a plant-based diet can be, as interest in veganism rose seven-fold from 2014 to 2019, according to Google Trends. The benefits a vegan lifestyle can provide for our health, animals and the planet are becoming more widely recognized every day.
“New Day New Chef” will also air on public television stations throughout the United States starting this spring.
