It's that time of year again! That's right, tonight (9|8c) marks the return of Food Network Star. Season 12 promises fierce competition, crazy challenges and the best contestants yet. And to add to the excitement, mentor Giada De Laurentiis is taking over Food Network’s Snapchat Discover.

For 24 hours only, you can get totally exclusive content to get you prepped for this season. We've got a special Q&A with Giada, a one-on-one tutorial for one of her favorite recipes and the audition tapes of this year's contestants. So yeah, you're going to want to see this.

Go now! As always, this takeover will disappear from the Food Network Snapchat channel at the end of the day and be replaced with brand-new content.

New to Discover? Let us guide you. Open your Snapchat app, swipe right twice (past the camera and Stories page), and find the orange Food Network icon — and you’re there!
