The Winbourne Family

Gregg and Chris are in Bromley reuniting a family with their kitchen. Bored of dad James’s cooking, the Winbournes often eat out, but now they want to learn some kitchen skills.

Gregg and Chris are in Bromley with a family who desperately want to change their ways. Busy mum Clare and daughters Rachel and Sadie all rely on dad James to cook the family meals, but not everyone is satisfied with what’s being rustled up. With the same meals on rotation and a lack of fruit and veg being consumed, the whole family are bored when it comes to mealtimes. To keep everyone happy, they often resort to eating out. With the girls growing up and Rachel soon off to university, Clare realises her girls need some kitchen skills. Can Gregg and Chris bring them together and get them all cooking in the kitchen?

Chris takes on the challenge of convincing Clare to take a packed lunch to work. He wants to prove to her that not only could it save her a lot of money, but it doesn’t have to consist of limp lettuce leaves and soggy sandwiches. Meanwhile, Gregg wants to get the girls in the kitchen to show them just how easy cooking can be, using tins to create three tasty and speedy dishes.

Chris also visits the UK's first zero waste restaurant to see if it is possible to dine out sustainably. A group of Exeter University film students give us their verdict on five different tortilla chips to see whether it’s worth spending more. Gregg and Chris take a look at grab-and-go breakfast snacks to see what we should be looking out for when it comes to nutrition, and they also come up with an easy one-pot lamb dish that’s packed with veg.
