Fresh Take with Renowned Chef Matthew Kenney Announced at HWC

Famed natural and raw food chef joins the Health & Wellness Channel, which will begin airing on cable during the first quarter of 2012.

Famed natural and raw food chef Matthew Kenney has signed to host the new afternoon cooking show on Health & Wellness Channel™ beginning spring 2012. The show, Fresh Take, which will be shot from various parts of the country, including his contemporary kitchen studios in Belfast, Maine, will begin airing first quarter 2012 as part of the initial offerings from the only television channel dedicated to life, love and longevity.

Says Health & Wellness Channel founder Drew Nederpelt, “Matthew is a wonderfully inspiring chef who is on the forefront of the movement to bring nature back into cooking and the culinary arts. We’re very lucky to have tapped into Matthew and his enthusiasm for something so worthwhile and needed in society today.”

As the owner of Matthew Kenney OKC, and the founder of the nation’s only licensed, raw-food cooking school, Matthew Kenney Academy, Matthew Kenney is the go-to authority on outside-the-box cooking.

“I wanted to do a show that could teach the average housewife or meal preparer how to create a healthy and inspired meal every day of the week. Fresh Take will focus on how to source and prepare great tasting yet nutritious and healthy meals with an eye on availability and cost.”

Randy Gruber, the VP of TV Operations for HWC, says, “Matthew’s an absolute genius at taking what most would pass up as pedestrian and uninteresting and creating great tasting and compelling meals.”
