Head to the kitchen, Swifties, and get ready to throw a dinner party Taylor Swift would approve of. The Grammy winner once revealed her go-to dishes for hosting a dinner party. Hint: They’re from huge names in the world of celebrity chefs. Plus, what her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, has said she’s “great” at making.
Swift’s go-to dinner party dishes are from Ina Garten, Nigella Lawson, and Jamie Oliver
In 2019, Swift revealed to Elle some of the dishes she considers dinner party fixtures. “I’ve always cooked a LOT, but I found three recipes I know I’ll be making at dinner parties for life,” she wrote.
One is Ina Garten’s Real Meatballs and Spaghetti. Featured in the Food Network star’s 2002 cookbook, Barefoot Contessa Family Style, Swift deviates from Garten’s instructions slightly. “I just use packaged bread crumbs and only ground beef for meat,” she noted.
The “Fortnight” singer is also a big fan of Nigella Lawson’s Mughlai Chicken. The cookbook author explained on her Nigella website that it’s not a dish “you can bang out in a moment.” So picture Swift spending an afternoon in the kitchen at any one of her multiple homes making it.
Last but not least, Swift loves Jamie Oliver’s Chicken Fajitas with Molé Sauce, which, per his instructions, come together in under 30 minutes.
Swift is also a talented baker
Swift’s skills in the kitchen go beyond cooking. She’s also said to be a talented baker. (Is there anything she can’t do?) Former NFL player Bernie Kosar recalled Swift bringing cinnamon rolls she baked herself to a pregame meal at Kelce’s house.
“That was at his house like three hours before the game. We’re having [our] pregame meal, and Taylor is so nice,” Kosar told Audacy’s AM 560 Sports WQAM in December 2023. “She comes in by herself, and she’s so cool. She brings…she made her homemade cinnamon rolls for Travis for pregame meal.”
Another specialty of Swift’s is homemade Pop-Tarts. Kansas City Chiefs coach Andy Reid once said they helped Swift “fit in” with Kelce’s teammates. “Kind of behind-the-scenes, she, to fit in—she didn’t even know she was doing this, I don’t think—she likes to cook,” he said during a February 2024 interview (via YouTube). “So she made the offensive linemen these homemade Pop-Tarts. So it was over. She knew right where to go.”
