Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on Thursday launched an online cooking series aimed at helping Americans prepare healthy, budget-friendly meals as part of the Trump administration’s “Make America Healthy Again” initiative.
The new series, “The Real Food Show,” features Kennedy traveling across the country to meet with chefs and culinary experts who demonstrate recipes using minimally processed ingredients.
“Inspired by President Trump’s Make America Healthy Again agenda, Secretary Kennedy is bringing the Dietary Guidelines for Americans to life and showing that cooking with real food can be practical, approachable, and affordable for every family,” the Department of Health and Human Services said in a statement.
“Every episode is packed with affordable, budget-friendly recipes and easy cooking techniques designed to save you time and money,” the department added.
In a promotional video announcing the series, Kennedy said the goal is to encourage Americans to embrace healthier eating habits through simple home cooking.
“Thanks to President Trump, we flipped the food pyramid and put real food back to where it belongs — at the center of the American plate,” Kennedy said. “America, it’s time to eat real food. Let’s get cooking.”
The new series premiered Thursday on the HHS website and YouTube. Celebrity chef Andrew Gruel joined Kennedy for the first episode, where they prepared crispy wild Alaskan salmon cakes served with an apple, white bean and greens salad.
“I’m excited to be part of the premiere episode because I believe the message is much bigger than a cooking show,” Gruel told Fox News Digital.
“My hope is that this series helps demystify cooking and shows people that preparing crave-worthy, healthy meals doesn’t require professional training or expensive ingredients,” he added.
