Let's Get Naked!

Are you ready to get naked with the one and only Naked Chef?  We are so excited to welcome Jamie Oliver as our new chef here at IHCC and cannot wait to get closer...and explore the meaning of "naked"...over the next six months. 

Jamie has at least ten different cookbooks to choose from, cooking shows galore (both current and on DVD), plus a magazine and numerous online resources to find his recipes (see our sidebar for links), so without further ado, let's all get naked comfortable with Jamie this week by picking any of his recipes and getting our hands dirty.  I know Jamie would approve.

Make and post your Let's Get Naked! post by Sunday, April 3. Don't forget to link your post of the week's with Mr. Linky below, so we can all enjoy your fabulous creation! Remember to leave a comment after, each week that you use Mr. Linky to link your post, just to be sure we don't miss anyone.
Not sure what a permalink is? Check out our Welcome post.
If you missed the Arrivederci Giada theme last week, be sure to head on over and see all of the delicious dishes everyone brought!  Don't forget, we're cooking through the recipes of Jamie Oliver right now...so if you've linked up, be sure that you've used/adapted one of his recipes for your post!

    Great post Heather and the new limited edition badge is so fun! ;-)

    I guess I am the first one "getting naked" this week with a big bowl of Jamie's Chickpea, Leek & Parmesan Soup to welcome him with. Delicious! ;-)

    Yay Jamie! He looks great there on his land, I love his "At Home" show. Looking forward to getting naked!
    Not now though, my curtains are open.. don't want to scare the neighbours. ;-)
    Thanks Heather!

    I'm excited to start cooking with Jamie, I love that he focuses on seasonal quality ingredients but his recipes aren't overly fussy.

    I need to get one of his cookbooks or google him or something. I've seen him around and like him so this sounds interesting. Thanks!

    I made Jamie's margherita pizza from Jamie at Home. Delish, as he would say.

    It is my first time participating (but I've been reading you). My blog is in French but there is a Google Translate button in the top left corner. Even if you don't want to read it, you can still see the pictures of my Jamie Oliver's recipes :-)

    I didn't write the name of the recipe when I posted my Permalink. Sorry. I'll know better next time.

    Merci!
    Funny, I had never made the connection between this blog and "In the Kitchen with puppies", which I read too :-) There are all one person then!
