Demi Lovato to release first cookbook, Entertainment News
The 32-year-old star — who has been open about her struggles with eating disorders — will release One Plate at a Time: Recipes for Finding Freedom with Food on March 31, 2026.
A description for the book reads: "Demi Lovato's cooking journey started when she was almost 30. After years of navigating a challenging relationship with food, she found that learning to cook — discovering how to truly nourish herself in mind, body, and spirit — was a revelation.
"It was in the kitchen, experimenting with flavours, connecting with loved ones, and channeling her creativity in a new way - that she truly began to appreciate and celebrate the joy of food."
Demi's cookbook will feature over 80 recipes ranging "from breakfast to dinner, comfort foods to fast food-inspired favourites, soups to salads, and even go-to sweet treats."
The synopsis continues: "Filled with beautiful food photography as well as snapshots that give fans a peek into Demi's home life, personal anecdotes, pantry tips, and cooking hacks, this is a cookbook for Demi Lovato fans, for people who struggle to enjoy food without guilt, and for anyone looking for a gentler, more grounded approach to cooking.
"One Plate at a Time is Demi's set list for a delicious new way of thinking about food and how it fits into our lives."
The former Disney star has previously alluded to her love for cooking and believes that making meals at home is "the biggest f*** you" to her eating disorder.
Demi — who has also suffered from mental health and substance abuse issues — told Penn Badgley's Podcrushed podcast last year: "The main thing that I'm working on is just body acceptance, and looking in the mirror and being like, 'This body is strong... This body saved my life and fought for my life when I overdosed. This body is a miracle.'"
The Cool for the Summer singer explained that she is trying to learn "body acceptance" after her eating disorder battles.
She said: "I have a treatment team that I work with that helps me stay in recovery, and I've been in recovery from bulimia for five, going on six, years now.
"I'm trying to learn body acceptance rather than body positivity, because body positivity feels like, 'I can't even reach that yet.' I have a nutritionist and a therapist that specialises in eating disorders."

Demi Lovato finds it 'really healing' to perform with her Camp Rock co-stars the Jonas Brothers, Entertainment News
Demi Lovato found it "really healing" to perform with the Jonas Brothers over the weekend. The 32-year-old singer-and-actress made a surprise appearance at her Camp Rock co-stars' show in New Jersey on Sunday (Aug 10) and not only was it "so nice" to be back on stage with the trio after receiving a call from ex-boyfriend Joe Jonas, they enjoyed some "meaningful" time in the dressing room with Demi's new husband Jordan 'Jutes' Lutes. Speaking on the Chicks in the Office podcast, she said: "[Joe] was like, 'Hey, what are you doing next weekend on the 10th? We would love to have you come and perform This Is Me and Wouldn't Change a Thing. You've been a huge part of our journey and… this show is really important to us and we would love to have you there. "It was so nice. We've been through so much together, all of us, the Jonas Brothers and I, and it was really, really great to spend time with them. "They came to my room all three of them and spent time getting to know my husband, which was really meaningful to me. "And they just thanked me profusely for flying across the country to perform with them and it was just so thoughtful and I felt so appreciated and it was really healing for us. I loved it. Every second of it was so great." Demi admitted she had no hesitation in agreeing to the performance because not only has she come to a point where she's happy to embrace her past, she was particularly happy to revisit a very "meaningful" song. She said: "This Is Me is my first big song that I've ever had. So getting to perform that with them for the first time in God knows how many years was just so full circle and so special and it was great to see them." However, she needed some help remembering the lyrics to This Is Me before she got on stage. "Once I listened to it a few times, it all came back to me," she said. "We finished soundcheck and Joe was like, 'Yeah, we still got it.'" Demi also returned to the Camp Rock movies after learning one of her closest friends had never seen Camp Rock 2: The Final Jam. She said: "I was like, 'B****, we're watching it.' So we watched the first one and I cringed out of my soul, but I loved every second. "And we watched the second one the next night, and it was so fun. "I don't just see a project that I worked on, I see a collection of memories that really fulfilled me and gave me so much life at a dark point in my life. I was kind of struggling when I was working on those projects but those projects brought me so much joy." [[nid:721273]]
