Allyson Gofton is the face of wholesome, heartwarming Kiwi home cooking.
She was the face of 'Food in a Minute', has written several cookbooks, and her recipes and advice have helped many households get food on the table.
Her newest cookbook, 'Give', is on shelves now, and this one's not just designed to help Kiwis, but also raise money for Breast Cancer Cure research.
The idea for the book came to Gofton when she was walking her dog one day, and came across a Dragon Boating competition, filled entirely with breast cancer survivors.
"I looked at these women, and I was filled with joy ... I thought, surely the person that was Allyson Gofton, that girl that wrote all the cookbooks, who's had some time out, surely, I could do something to give back," Gofton told Jack Tame.
"I thought, surely that girl that was supported by New Zealand women could do something to give back."
