A cookbook from Oprah Winfrey's personal chef would no doubt be popular no matter what (proved here by the 200,000-copy first printing), but Daley in fact offers a number of zesty and creative recipes. Her professional background includes experience as a spa chef, and most of her dishes are sophisticated and elegant presentations-although there are also recipes for Un-Fried French Fries and Un-Fried Chicken. Many are highly spiced as well, substituting assertive flavor for fat. You'll probably need multiple copies.

This is a nice small cookbook, easy to follow recipes with lots of everyday ideas as well as dishes for special occasions. I have several favorites from this book that I continue to return to. No diet fads here, just good healthy wholesome food that stand up to time.

Cookbook by a former chef of Oprah Winfrey. I make a few recipes from this book, but not many. To get flavor without fat there are a lot of complicated or time consuming recipes. I've found others I like better.

This is a small book, but there are some really, really good recipes in here. A couple of them I have made over and over again. So even though the book is small it is worthwhile. It is hard to find good healthy, flavorful calorie conscious recipes.

Lots of yummy sounding recipes, too bad I don't know how to cook. I believe Rosie was one of Oprah's earlier chefs. Most of the recipes are modified, low -fat versions of Oprah's favorite foods.

i collect cookbooks ... i have over 2,500 in my personal library . with this in mind , i consider this book a must have . there is a recipe in it , for a veggie sandwich , just for this recipe alone , this book is worth it !!!! this is one of the most awesome recipes and soo tasty . there are other good recipes in it , but this one tops them .
[ just remember , you dont have to bake the bread that daley adds ... i got lazy and buy some good subrolls ]

This book has some great and easy recipes and it also has some that look too complicated for a beginner cook like me. The pictures are really cool.
