Savannah Guthrie really doesn't stop, from traveling around the world to interview public figures for the Today Show, to challenging herself in her personal life.
The NBC star is notoriously unconfident in the kitchen, and has been open about her challenges cooking in the past.
However, she hit a new personal milestone this month after being the cover star on Allrecipes Fall 2023, which hits the shelves on August 18.

When asked which of her co-stars inspires her in the kitchen, Savannah said: "Al Roker. He loves to cook, he's so inventive, and he's always trying something new. He's unafraid."

It was first announced on the show back in March 2022, with her co-star Carson Daly telling viewers at the time: "If you've watched us over the years you will have noticed probably pretty easily that Savannah, our friend here, is pretty challenged when it comes to certain cooking."

The mom-of-two went on to give more details of the show, explaining: "Over the last few months I've been filming a cooking show that I can't even say without laughing. It's called Starting from Scratch and I'm doing the slicing, the dicing, and we have culinary icons helping us."

Back in November ahead of the program, Savannah spoke to HELLO! about the challenges she faced when filming this year's festive special - including the injuries that occurred while making one dish in particular!
"Starting From Scratch is the cooking show for people who don't cook," she explained. "We did a holiday special and trust me if I can do it, anyone can do it. It's really fun, Marcus Hamilton who is one of the best chefs and a great teacher - we had a ham - it was already pre-cooked so all we did was make the glaze - it's easy! And a beautiful potato side dish. If you're not a cook, it's a fun show to watch, I only cut myself a couple of times!
"It's a good time and you will come away with a couple of good recipes."
She added: "I made this potato au gratin, it's super yummy and I can't believe I made it. Although I cut myself in the show and I cut myself again at home (when remaking it)." Hoda Kotb, who joined Savannah in the interview, jokingly told her co-star: "Stop cooking!"
