Eat Happy!

Published: Aug. 16, 2018, 8:06 p.m.

Melissa Hemsley and Anna Jones want you to eat happy. What does that mean? It\u2019s cooking for yourself, not beating yourself up about what you eat, and indulging in seasonal produce. Melissa and Anna, two of the most beloved members of the British Bombesquad, join us to talk about everything from royal weddings to marriage proposals that never happened to their joyous new cookbooks. Melissa\u2019s is called Eat Happy and focuses on healthy food you can make in 30 minutes or less, and Anna\u2019s is The Modern Cook\u2019s Year, a collection of more than 250 vegetarian recipes. Be sure to check them out, get cooking, and don\u2019t miss our chat (which we\u2019re bringing to you unedited!). In the second half of our show, we talk to Jennifer Boggis and Ruby Grant of New Zealand\u2019s Heilala Vanilla, the world's most awarded vanilla brand. Heilala (pronounced Hey, Lala!) is a mission-based brand founded to help farmers in the Kingdom of Tonga after a cyclone ravaged the chain of islands. Heilala is producing beautiful products loved by top chefs and bakers around the world.
