I have tried many of the recipes and found them to be flavorful. It is nice to have a variety of chefs instead of one person in this Cookbook. The only mishap I would say there is not more of Oprah's own dishes she created herself. Otherwise a wise choice with great selection!!
Oprah's Magazine Cookbook has 175 recipes from top chefs plus interviews and lots of color photos. Art Smith's great-great-grandma's 12 layer chocolate cake is worth the book alone! I was very impressed with this first cookbook and all the contributors. As usual, Oprah has outdone herself..
If you love Oprah, you'll love having the recipes in one place. The pics are beautiful and it would make a wonderful gift~!! Especially to an Oprah fan~!!
