RYAN Seacrest has only just recently landed the gig as the new host of Wheel of Fortune, but he’s already planning out his next big move.

On Monday, Ryan appeared as a guest on Good Morning America to discuss his longtime hosting gig on American Idol and his upcoming hosting role on Wheel of Fortune.
After sharing his excitement about replacing Pat Sajack as the next host of the beloved game show, the radio star went on to dish on another major excitement in his life.
Robin Roberts asked him about his love of food and how it’s recently become part of his job at American Idol
The GMA host said: “Going back to American Idol for a moment, I hear the contestants’ families, they started giving you food. And you’re a foodie.”
Ryan admitted that’s been happening a lot at the show because everyone knows he’s a “massive foodie.”
That’s when the star revealed it’s this hobby of his that he next wants to turn into a career.
“That’s the one show I have not done yet, which is a food show. Which I’d love to do someday,” he said.
Shocked that Ryan, who also hosts a radio show and only recently left his gig co-hosting Live with Kelly Ripa, could even think about future gigs, Robin told him: “Come on, would you leave something for the rest of us?!”

Ryan teased back: “What? What are you talking about? There’s seven days a week. I mean, Sundays are slow for me.”
Getting back to the original question, the American Idol host shared: “So, the contestants started bringing, like, meatballs from a restaurant that they love.
“They started bringing desserts and things like that.
“So, I was fully taken care of with refreshments before the auditions outside.”
Once the segment began to wrap, Linsey Davis, who was filling in for absent host Michael Strahan, teased while pointing at Ryan: “And anybody who’s looking for a food show host.”
He laughed and insisted: “There’s gotta be somebody in the building here!”
Fans have long been begging for Ryan to have his own cooking show, as he's often shown off his skills both on Live and on Instagram.
After leaving the talk show, he's ramped up his kitchen content on social media.
Most recently, he shared photos and videos of himself cooking sea bass and shared the recipe in his caption.
One fan commented: “Delicious! You need your own YouTube cooking show @ryanseacrest!”
Another begged: “When is your cooking show???? Yummy!!!”
