    'The Yes Chef' Tess Ward is taking over the Marie Claire UK Instagram account for the week...

    Dubbing herself ‘The Yes Chef’ and praising the benefits of a ‘Naked Diet’, Tess Ward has paved herself a successful path to culinary acclaim through a stripped back and wholesome approach to food. Her tagline ‘count colours not calories and goodness not grams’ sets her apart from other online ‘foodies’ and could be responsible for her online success and her 26k Instagram followers.

    Tess will be taking over the Marie Claire UK Instagram account this week to give you some cooking inspiration. She plans to fill your newsfeeds with aesthetically stunning photos and promote the importance of the avocado, posting a series of recipes for the super food five ways over five days. Make sure to check back on marieclaire.co.uk next week to get the full recipes for each post.

    Tess is a Le Cordon Bleu trained chef, Grazia food writer, lifestyle blogger and adding another shining accolade to her name she is as of this month the author of ‘The Naked Diet’: her debut cookbook that promises to revolutionise your approach to food. Celebrating unprocessed ‘naked’ ingredients and simple cooking ‘The Naked Diet’ encourages eating healthily but in balance, distancing itself from food restriction and deprivation.

    Tess will be posting on Marie Claire UK’s Instagram account every day this week so stay tuned and don’t miss out on her range of recipes for our favourite super food. If the mouthwatering posts on her blog ‘The Yes Chef’ are anything to go by, we are all in for a treat!
