Eva Longoria: The Next Food Network Star!

Eva Longoria serves as a guest judge with Todd English and Bobby Flay in this Sunday’s episode of The Next Food Network Star, airing at 9PM ET/PT on Sunday (August 1) on Food Network.

Ep synopsis: Giada De Laurentiis reveals the five remaining finalists will cook their all-time favorite signature dish but they have to add their least favorite ingredient, which was delivered by the family members of each finalist. After recovering from the emotional reunion of seeing their families, finalists are each assigned “an emotion” and must cook a dish and tell a story inspired by that emotion.
