Blake Shelton is giving fans a rare and mouthwatering peek into the kitchen talents of his wife, Gwen Stefani. During a recent episode of the Country Heat Weekly podcast, the country superstar couldn’t stop singing praises for Stefani’s cooking—especially when it comes to her homemade lasagna.
“Gwen mostly cooks,” Shelton shared with genuine admiration. “Man, she’s really good at anything Italian. But my favorite is probably lasagna.” So, what makes her lasagna so special? Shelton revealed it’s a true labor of love that requires a full day of preparation. “That’s one of those things it takes her all day, like, it’s an all day thing, you know? And I would eat that for the rest of my life.”
But Gwen’s culinary prowess doesn’t stop there. Shelton also highlighted her dedication to authenticity in the kitchen. “She makes homemade pizza,” he said, emphasizing that Gwen crafts everything from scratch—from the dough and its rising to the perfect bake in the pizza oven. “She really does this stuff for real.”
The couple, who began dating in 2015 and tied the knot in 2021, clearly share a zest for food and culinary experimentation. Speaking to PEOPLE ahead of Thanksgiving 2024, Shelton described their open-minded food philosophy: “Never say no to any kind of food. Whatever you want to try, I’ll try it. Just bring it on.”
Their adventurous spirit extends to holiday traditions as well. Shelton recalled some of their bold Thanksgiving creations, including a “Flamin’ Hot Cheetos turkey,” crusted entirely with the spicy snack, followed by a “Funyuns turkey” that surprisingly tasted close to a classic roast. For 2021, the menu featured a bacon-wrapped turkey, inspired by a photo one of Stefani’s sons spotted. “We’re doing it,” Shelton confirmed enthusiastically.
From all-day lasagna masterpieces to daring holiday meals, Gwen Stefani’s culinary talents clearly keep Blake Shelton—and his appetite—more than satisfied. As Shelton simply puts it, when it comes to Gwen’s cooking, “I would eat that for the rest of my life.”
