has anyone else noticed that her recipes have gone from mainstream-family friendly to kinda out-there quasi-gourmet?
I don't have a problem with some recipes being the "gourmet" variety, but I would like to see some more 30 minutes meals my family would actually eat! What about you?

I sincerely agree. After three years of watching her shows, I often sit watching her shows wondering: "Is there anyone that would eat this stuff?" If nothing else, I would like to see some more family friendly/picky eater recipes that would be both healthy and something that an entire family could enjoy.

I agree with you however she has to have recipes that will address all people in her audience not just families. I have 2 of her books which are family friendly {though Ive never made anything from them to be honest} If you want family oriented try Semi Homemade with Sandra Lee and Paula Deen's shows. As for the guy that said she's getting chunky get a grip no she is not she like most women go up and down with her weight and being her age {almost 40} if she wants to gain a few pounds who the hell are you to judge anyone
But let me add this. I have never cooked a meal from start to finish in 30 minutes. Being raised in the south we were taught that food is love so if we are cooking for our family we are giving them love, if that make sense to you. There are times I might not be standing in the kitchen the whole time but there are times and not just holidays that what I cook takes hours from start to finish. I dont want my children growing up thinking that cooking has to be rushed

Yes, when she started we tried a lot of her recipes. I subscribed to her magazine. Now I rarely look through it. To gourmet for my kids and I. I cant even find half of the ingredients in my small town grocery store.

My remark is going to be adverse, no longer hateful, yet adverse. No, i do unlike her. Cheery is physically powerful yet she abuses it. that is like a 5 365 days previous who ate too plenty sugar mixed with a crack addict. Her cooking is okay, i recognize a great style of people ***** that is quite crappy/undesirable for you and so on. yet I understand the ought to make issues without postpone. What annoys me approximately her cooking is that it ought to truthfully be made into something fairly healthful-extra suitable than what she in many situations seems a minimum of. occasion she makes use of iceberg for all time there are various varieties of lettuce and vegetables use something with extra nutritional substance. She additionally tells outright lies. She claims her warm dogs salad is healthful so which you will eat extra. I did calculations as quickly as one serving incorporates some million/2 C vegetables (and lower back it became specifically iceberg which has little or no nutritional fee) and a couple of warm dogs. She is overexposed.

I still like her, but I agree with the 30 minute comment....I don't think its really possible to make all that in 30 minutes (well I guess unless you're a total spaz like her and you run all over the kitchen with piles of crap in your arms)
I prefer my cooking time to be RELAXING!

I agree, she use to have very easy family friendly meals, now forget it I don't have time to shop for the stuff she cooks much less cook it.

She's a hack. I doubt her food is worth eating. And I agree that she is packing on the weight. Sometimes I have to look away from the TV to avoid catching sight of her waddling around her fake kitchen.

In my opinion she has gone too far into left field...away from recipes and into people thingy? :( not knocking her she has some good recipes but her show is not what I thought it would be :(

I agree, too...I used to watch her every day, but now she's gotten a little too fancy since she's been hanging out and cooking for Miss "Richy-Rich" Oprah!

First off, unless you prep everything before hand, there is no such as a 30 minute meal. Second, she is getting very chunky, and very cocky.
