Alexandra Breckenridgeis seemingly using the actor’s strike as an opportunity to engage inone of her favorite hobbies—cooking.

While the 41-year-old actress just sawthe fifth seasonof her show,Virgin River, premiere on Netflix, she's been more focused on thefancy dishesthat she's been whipping up in her kitchen.

Breckenridge, who playsMelinda “Mel” MonroeonVirgin River, has been sharing all kinds of recipes with her followers.

From smoked chickens to breakfast burritos to tomato salads, theAmerican Horror Storyactress has really been showing off her range, and fans are loving it.

On her tomato salad video, one user commented, “You make everything look so pretty and appealing. A real talent! Thank you for continuing to share with us.” Meanwhile, another wrote, “Delish!! Thank you for sharing this.”

While Breckenridge’s cooking videos have been more prolific as of late, fans who have been following her for a long time might recall that she's posted quite a few cooking clips in the past.

In fact, she's evenfilmed videos with her fellowVirgin Riverco-stars, Martin Henderson, 48, and Zibby Allen, 42, who portray Jack and Brie Sheridan on the show.

All the way back in August 2021, Hendersonshared a clipwhere he taught Breckenridge how to make a Pavlova—a meringue-based dessert. In his caption, Henderson wrote, “The final reveal of Alex’s first ever Pavlova surpasses all expectation!!!”

现在,球迷等着看出台reunite with her co-stars for another cooking collab. One follower said, “Can’t wait to see if you do another cooking show with @martinhendersonofficial and @zibbyloo …because season 5 ofVirgin Riveris not complete without one!
