Martha Stewart weighs in on Pamela Anderson's cookbook with honest feedback

Martha Stewart praised Pamela Anderson's new plant-based cookbook, I Love You: Recipes from the Heart.

For ELLE’s January 2025 digital issue, the lifestyle mogul interviewed Pamela Anderson and talked about the Last Showgirl star's cookbook, released in October.

"I got your cookbook. Very nicely done," praised Stewart. "How long did it take you to put it together?"

In response, Anderson said, "Three years. I didn’t realize what it takes to make a cookbook. I made this recipe card box for my kids [Brandon Thomas Lee, 27, and Dylan Jagger Lee, 26] when they got their first home together, and they are the ones who said, 'Mom, this is a cookbook.'"

Anderson revealed that her sons converted the recipe card box into an official cookbook, noting that "they're businessmen."

"The pierogies with peas and mint. It’s a nice combination. I have fond memories of making pierogies with my mom," Anderson shared

Stewart complimented the recipe saying, it "came out beautifully," which prompted Anderson to respond, "Oh, thank you. That means a lot coming from you."

Previously in the press release of the book launch in April 2024, The Last Show Girl actress said in a statement, "This book has been a labor of love—from my heart, spilling out to the universe… with all my favorite things from my life of food and whimsy… inspired by my travels but mostly from the island I grew up on, a rainforest that deserves all the glory."
