Robyn Lawley has got a lot cookin’. The plus-sized model appears, gorgeous as always, in a self-styled shoot for Cosmopolitan Australia’s April issue lensed by Steven Chee. Dispelling the myth that models survive on lemon juice and cayenne pepper cleanses, Robyn will be releasing a cookbook inspired by her blog ‘Robyn Lawley Eats,’ containing her favorite recipes and a few handed down in her family (Check it out! Everything on her blog looks droolingly delicious). To top it off, the Australian born model has signed a television deal for her very own cooking show set to air on Australian network Foxtel.

Cooking is just one of her hobbies, but it’s the one she’s most passionate about. “I don’t hold back from eating what I want,” She confessed in a September 2012 interview, “I just make sure it’s portion controlled. My boyfriend has to finish every meal when we eat out in New York as they’re so huge. If you feel guilty about food, it stops you from being in the moment. I have many hobbies – photography, cooking, sports – and they’re a great distraction if you’re getting too self-absorbed. People think, ‘Oh, if I lost ten kilos life would be so much better.’ Actually, it’s not better: it’s worse, because then you struggle to keep the weight off.”
