The Kelly Clarkson Show is a popular daytime talk show featuring celebrity interviews, musical performances, and engaging segments. Recently, vegan chef Priyanka Naik joined Kelly to cook a delicious Bucatini a la Pumpkin dish for a live studio audience.
The appearance was a whirlwind for Naik, who received a last-minute invitation and flew to Hollywood for filming. The show provided the full celebrity treatment: hair and makeup, a personal dressing room, and even a gift from Kelly.
Clarkson’s warmth and energy made the on-camera experience easy. The live audience added an electric atmosphere to the cooking segment. Sara Gilbert, from “Roseanne,” also joined the fun, adding to the excitement of the live taping.
Besides The Kelly Clarkson Show, Naik also appeared on the TODAY Show, showcasing her Chili Maple Skillet Cornbread from her cookbook, “The Modern Tiffin.” This segment was filmed at home, requiring extensive preparation.
Cooking live on TV, whether in a studio or at home, is challenging. Naik embraces the pressure and enjoys the thrill of performing in real-time.
Naik’s dedication to showcasing vegan recipes on national television reflects her passion for sharing delicious, diverse food. She demonstrates that vegan cuisine can be part of traditional holidays, bridging cultural gaps.
Behind the scenes, Naik manages all aspects of her career, from recipes to tech setup and media appearances, while working full-time in tech. This highlights the hard work behind her TV appearances. “The Modern Tiffin” offers a collection of Naik’s globally inspired vegan dishes.
