Welcome back to Amelia Is Not a Chef episode 5, the pop culture cooking show where I serve up the ultimate summer recipes while breaking down your favorite Bravo shows and reality TV drama from the previous week!

Welcome back to Amelia is NOT a Chef — the cooking-meets-reality-TV show that will bring joy to your life.

Welcome to Episode 3 of Amelia is NOT a Chef – where I make something delicious and break down the fun Bravo/Pop-culture drama from the week! This week, I’m making Salted Brown Butter Rice Krispie Treats – the chic upgrade you didn’t know your childhood favorite dessert needed. Rich, nutty brown butter, gooey marshmallows, a touch of almond extract, and a sprinkle of Maldon sea salt. It’s easy, addicting, and perfect for adults and kids.
While I cook, I’m diving into all the pop culture and Bravo chaos you love:
✨ The Valley — Jax’s rage texts from rehab, Jesse’s Prosecco-fueled meltdown, and Janet holding her own
✨ Summer House — Lexi & Jesse reunite, Sierra’s icy walls, Kyle’s sperm results, Carl’s sober bar business, and a cringy dinner / bonfire
✨ Love Hotel — Ashley Darby’s new man-options, Shannon’s chaos, and why Joel Kim Booster is TV gold
✨ Secret Lives of Mormon Wives + Bravo casting news (Real Housewives of Rhode Island & the return of Shahs of Sunset?!)
Welcome to the first episode of Amelia’s Not a Chef, where cooking meets reality TV, and pop culture commentary. In this episode, I dish up a golden, crispy tuna melt while breaking down everything from Season 2, Episodes 1 & 2 of Bravo’s The Valley to Season 9, Episode 11 of Summer House. As this is my first episode, bear with me- it'll get better with time 😅 I dive deep into the toxic relationship dynamics of Jax Taylor and Brittany Cartwright, emotional avoidance, and public accountability. I also cover Paige DeSorbo and Craig Conover’s relationship, shifting girl group dynamics, and the viral Lexi vs. Jesse standoff. Get the latest non-commentary on Coachella 2025, brief touching on White Lotus, and my opinion on season 14 of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills (RHOBH). Whether you’re here for (super) easy, comforting recipes or the latest Bravo Pop-Culture drama, this show blends it all.
